When I started the blog class this semester, it was really done as an "experiment". I was frustrated that the students weren't doing enough quality writing. I knew how creative they were and I wanted to give them the opportunity to showcase their originality. I was a bit nervous about how they would respond to "blogging" every class.
Here we are at the end of the semester and once again the kids impressed me. Every single student contributed and our blog is a success.
One of the assignments was to talk about how The Community School changed their education. The kids were so inspired and wanted to share more about their experiences that they made a commercial.
These are the kinds of things that can't be planned. The spontaneity and genuineness are not something that can be acted. What you see in this commercial is how the kids really feel about our school. I am so lucky to have such amazing students who teach me something new every day.
