JOURNAL TOPIC:
Use at least five vocabulary words from our list to write about the following topic:
The internet has become more interactive, but it has also become more isolated. We can contribute to websites (like this one), but more and more people only "hang out" with others who share their opinions and politics. How do you think this is affecting our society?
(Note: You don't have to have all the answers to the actual question-- we will discuss this further on Tuesday as we discuss search terms and begin reading a new story. What's important for today is that you get some practice using the vocabulary words based on their correct definitions and forms. Speaking of which, is the Google doc complete and accurate yet? As I write this on Sunday just after 12:30 P.M., it's not even close...)
