Applied Skills Care Packages Paragraph:

I made five packages, each with different contents. In each, I put a knitted scarf, except for one where I included a hat. I put a toothbrush and toothpaste kit in one of them, a shaving kit in two of them, and a comb in two of them. I also put a small hand towel, a bar of soap and a small shampoo and conditioner in each of them. I thought to include these to make it easier for the homeless to get clean at the end of the day. I put a variety of cookies, granola bars, and Pocky (basically, healthy snack food) in a small Ziploc bag inside the large Ziploc bag, in case they get hungry. I think by challenging us to think what we would want in a care package as a homeless person, Mr. Olson really forced us to think from a different perspective and that was really powerful.

Also, the answer to the last riddle was tilt it so the water lines up with the edge of the bottom of the glass (45 degrees) and if the water matches the opposite edge on the top it is half full.
