Recently the Gr. 3-1 class completed a writing project based on Wendy Ewald’s book, The Best Part of Me. The students needed to pick a body part that they felt was their best feature. Then they had to write a short piece to explain why they felt this way. This became a collaborative project as the high school multimedia students visited the Gr. 3’s to be their official photographer.

The multimedia students were given the challange to create an interesting and meaningful image of the chosen body part. Photographers were encouraged to try different camera angels, different lighting styles and get as close as possible to the subject. The results were stunning. Each Gr. 3 student had a unique photograph to help tell their own personal story. The high school students were able to show off their photography knowledge as well as demonstrate their leadership skills as they organised the photo shoot for each student.
