My students are experiencing the first ever journalism course at our school. They are excited to bring the news from around campus to their classmates, teachers and families. It is our goal to share all of the relevant current events with our school and local community.
With the world of journalism constantly changing, my students will have the opportunity to experience that change firsthand.
Through studying units highlighting journalistic writing, interviewing, sports reporting, design, photography and ethics these kiddos will be prepared to share all of the exciting things happening on campus.
My Project
In the past, our school has only had a handful of electives for our juniors and seniors to choose from. This year an introduction to journalism course is being offered, and my students are prepared to learn about everything journalism has to offer.
It is my hope that with this camera my journalists will learn the importance of photojournalism, as well as share and publish amazing photography for our readers to enjoy.
With sporting events, assemblies, guest speakers, dances and club fundraisers, this camera will allow my students to always have an eye on what is going on around campus.
