Memorable moments and visual elements
What I enjoy most is creating the book of letters addressed to Erin Gruwell after our work on respecting people of different languages, races, colors, and religions. We usually watch the movie around January 27, Memorial Day. The next task is to write a diary page.
While they wrote, I saw faces filled with happiness, fear, and even tears of pain. When I was allowed to read their diaries, I found beautiful stories—stories of fear and of the pain of losing a parent or coping with illness. We adults don’t listen enough to 10-year-olds.
We adults listen too little to 10-year-olds… students created a book of 93 letters full of beautiful stories, fears, and hopes.Marco Datti
