Extra Credit

Here is where I will post the 15 extra credit opportunities. To receive the extra credit for the course, you will need to complete all 15. To keep track of your extra credit, please post on your blog the following: What you did? What you learned? Why others should do the activity?
Your answers should be around a paragraph overall.

Week 1: Go to http://www.freerice.com/ and donate 1000 grains of rice.
Week 2: Go to http://www.smithmag.net/sixwords/ and post your six-word memoir
