I showed the students another photo essay on Friday. I also showed them the comments other students have left behind. All students agreed that something had to be done. As I read the comments to them the more head nodding I was seeing. They have decided to meet a lunch on Monday to come up with a fund raising idea.https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1019297942530526331&postID=7854468568988799374
While we were doing our own investigation of the Haitian Earthquake the other teachers in the school came to the room. They wanted to make what the Grade 8 students had thought of a whole school project. This was fantastic. I was impressed with how the students ideas were spreading already.
Now the students will be running the show on Monday and taking responsibility for fundraising. Here is one way to make students become activists. I will update this post on Tuesday to tell you of how the meeting went and what the students have decided to do.
