Adventures in learning - through writing.

 Adventures in learning begin when a youth is engaged.  Many tell us that they do not like to write, so here is the camera or IPad.  Take a photo. Then look at the photo, and write about what it's in the photo.  Often we go from a single index card to three or four.  "Is that to many?" Is there a way to capture this on a test.  How do we share that type of success?  It is more often reflected in their critical thinking skills, and yes on another test. At Backpack Journalist, we are now publishing a newsletter/paper.  Read all about it - comes out 4 times a year, and it's filled with interviews and stories, and lots of pictures. Easy to ask for!  Send and email to Ldennis@abackpackjournalist.com
