“Be an explorer...read, surf the internet, visit customers, enjoy arts, watch children play...do anything to prevent yourself from becoming a prisoner of your knowledge, experience, and current view of the world.” - Charles Thompson
This wiki is open to anyone at Avon High School who is interested in discussing books, authors and any kind of reading. It is a collaborative forum for you -- please feel free to add to this ongoing work.
See Mrs. Young in the Media Center for the invite key (password) to be able to collaborate on this wiki.
We all know what Wikipedia looks like and even though we've been told not to use it, sometimes we still fall back into old habits. Now is your chance to design a Wikipedia-like page by editing this Coffee Talk Wiki. Go ahead and take a look at Wikipedia right now (Don't be afraid...Mrs. Young says it's OK!). What things do you notice about the main page? What types of information are included?
