Hi Everyone,
Sorry for the delay getting to this. Remember that we do not meet again until Tuesday for our Sequoia work, but don't delay because this is a bit of work to be completed by the end of the morning on Wednesday. After a brief discussion on Tuesday morning, we will have the remaining time on Tuesday and Wednesday as a work period to wrap up the final natural boundary projects.
Please complete the Journal Reflections (#1) and prepare for the human-created boundaries discussion (#2) BEFORE class on Tuesday.
1. Journal Reflections. These can be written, sketched, or painted. Choose FOUR (4) of the following seven topics on our trip, and please address the following three things for each: 1. Indicate what was meaningful or interesting to you about this topic. 2. EXPLAIN at least two boundaries related to each topic (i.e. the boundary, its origin, its effects on humans, its effects on the natural environment, etc.). 3. What role do you feel people can or should play in maintaining, breaking through, or strengthening each boundary.
Topics (YOU ONLY NEED TO REFLECT ON FOUR OF THE FOLLOWING):
Native American History and Boundaries at Hospital Rock with Tom Burge
Fire Ecology and Boundaries with Deb Schweizer and Tony Caprio
The Origins and Meanings of the Park Boundary with Bill Tweed
Bear Biology and Management with Ryan Leahy
Crystal Cave
The Giant Forest and Moro Rock
The General Sherman Tree
2. Please prepare to have a discussion about human-created boundaries in Sequoia during the first part of class on Tuesday. I will want everyone to contribute to this discussion, so jot down at least five of these boundaries in your journal, and be ready to discuss the reasons for these boundaries, their effects on people, and their effects on the natural environment. This will replace the skits that we didn't get to on the trip.
3. Please continue working on your natural boundaries final project as assigned. This is due by the end of class on Wednesday, and can take many different forms as long as it meets the criteria as detailed in the assignment.
As usual, email me with any questions. Again, thanks for a great week!
