Okay, need some advice -

Found 2 throws at Walmart for $4 each. Fuzzy, bundled up so only the edges were visible.

Turns out, one is Santa Snoopdog.

Think it's OK for Middle School?

(The other throw is just plaid.)

#TLSky #EduSky #SchoolLibrarians #TLSkyChat
Green fuzzy throw blanket with darker green snowflakes. Across the top, text reads "Merry Christmas". Prominent down the center is a cartoon figure of Snoop Dogg dressed as Sanat holding a bag of toys. In his other hand is a golden microphone. Across the band of his Smara hat is text that reads "Snoop on the Stoop." Red, black, and white throw.

Some of the best journalism from our reporters at The Upshot starts with a reporter squinting at a table, or a list, or a rough chart, and trying to divine meaning from it. Here are some memorable examples of when that process paid off this year.

Huh. It's almost like - & try to follow me here - being spoon fed info is not as beneficial for expanding one's mind and skills as LEARNING HOW TO FIND AND ANALYZE INFORMATION ON YOUR OWN.

Who could have foreseen...?
