Say Cheese!

We’ve started a new quarter! And with a new quarter comes new ways for Nitzanim (“Buds” for 1st/2nd grade) children to take ownership of our community.

One of our new אחריות יומית (acharayut yomit–daily responsibilities) is צלם (tzalam–photographer). Here he is with the iPad!

Here are some of the shots he took today:

Shots of a group conversation in the sifriyah.

A different angle on a group conversation in the sifriyah.

A page layout for our “pictionary” project.

I look forward to seeing how this new responsibility will shape children’s experience, how they’ll curate their exploration and how their perspective will come through their photographs.
