I would like students to take time to reflect on their opinions of what occurred in Washington DC on January 6th. I will pose some questions and students may respond to as many or as few as they would like. They may write in paragraph form, if students would like to write a poem they may, if they create a piece of music they could upload upload to canvas, or upload a piece of artwork to canvas. I would accept any of these option for this assignment. Possible ideas to respond to.
