Give a Kid a Camera!

What happens when you mix the following ingredients:

  • 30 eager 6th graders who have rarely (if ever) used a digital camera and know little to nothing about PowerPoint

  • 12 VERY BASIC digital cameras (thanks to a grant from NCaect)

  • A wireless laptop cart with brand new HP laptops (thanks to our school system) installed with PowerPoint (among many other great programs)

  • An assignment that begins, "A very popular Science magazine has hired you to do a “photo shoot” for one of the following themes. Circle which theme your group would like to work on:

    “Mysteries on the Outside”


    “Our World, Close Up”


    “I’ll Believe It When I See It”



  • Two 80 minute blocks of class time
