Élever un petit enferby Ray McGuire & Brian Smith If you don't like what you got why don't you change it If your world is all screwed up, rearrange it If you don't like what you see, why don't you fight it If you know there's something wrong, why don't you right it In the end it comes down to your thinking And there's really nobody to blame, when it feels like your ship is sinking And you're too tired to play the game, nobody's going to help you You've just got to stand up alone and dig in your heels And see how it feels to raise a little Hell of your own

Rotating Graffiti Stations We’re going to do another small group activity, but this time you won’t be staying in one place for long. Each of you should join a group of about four participants at one of the stations that has been established around the classroom. Together you will have the responsibility of answering some questions by making comments on the white board directly in front of your group. You will have ten minutes to do this. When the time is up, move with your group to the next station, where you will continue your conversation by responding to the comments left behind by the group that has just vacated that station. You have ten minutes to record the main points of your discussion at this station. When that time is up, move on to the next station, where you will now have the comments of two other groups to consider. Again take ten minutes to respond, and move on when the time is up. When every group has occupied each station, leaving remarks behind at all of them, break out of your groups and read all of the white board comments. Add questions, comments, or criticisms to these writings whenever you are inspired to do so. Remember that each station will include comments from all groups, making orderliness a challenge. Write as small and as legibly as you can, please!
