We're happy to report that the frigid winter temperatures did not scare away our students from venturing into their neighborhoods to take photos and video of their home surroundings as part of our Walking the Path program! The surroundings are the backdrop to the students' personal stories about the events that have shaped their lives thus far.
Luckily the writing component of Walking the Path involves indoor work however, so students were able to warm up as they honed their writing and editing skills. A crucial aspect of Walking the Path is building students literacy skills. This entails not just their ability to write about their lives eloquently, but also to edit their peers' work.
A deeply personal experience, the process of creating their autobiographical digital stories in Walking the Path is both self-exploratory and a means for building real-life skills in computer digital editing programs and literacy.
We'll have photos to post soon!
Thank you for your continuing support of Walking the Path.
