Welcome to Ms. Young's class Tumblr blog. We will use this space collaboratively to accumulate visual inspiration for our journals. Now that it's January, we are working entirely with images contributed last month by Period 3.

At the start of each month, every student in one class will contribute a striking image for review and posting the following month. All through every month, every student (in all Ms. Young's classes) will choose one of the images already on the blog and use it to spark a creative or reflective journal entry. At the end of each month, Ms. Young will grade the Tumblr journal entries.

Find your inspiration here and write about it in your journal. Check out the Web sites below if you have time. Happy browsing, happy writing!
