2. Create a new bubbl.us brainstorm called “Sneakers”.  Fill in everything you’ve learned so far and questions that you still have.

3. Click HERE for sneaker photos.  Choose a sneaker and use Inspiration to diagram each of the parts (as seen in Sneakers, Part 1).  Now post your diagram on your blog.
