The Nitty Gritty

March 22: 3 hours 15 minutes spent at Roberto Clemente

Today, we went granular. Terry showed both classes a film on World War II while we four volunteers set up in the library. We each worked one-on-one with students to clean and edit their favorite pieces for publication in the "fake" history book. We also had them fill out a form with autobiographical details for an authors' section at the end of the book. We managed to sit with every student, although not all had a completely finished product. Most of the students are using their 2020 assignment where they speculate on life in the year 2020. Sadly, many have very unrealistic expectations of what their lives will be like.
