The kids did a great job today. We reviewed last week's lessons including going over "surface" and "deeper" questions and then began to prepare for next week's interviews. We will be meeting two "heroes" including Marzuq Muhammad, a very impressive young man, who I met as a result of the following article in The Boston Globe.

As well as Michelle Albert, who Marzuq introduced me and the class to because of her wonderful work and passion for educating young men and women, most currently where she is the principal at the Mother Caroline Academy for middle school.

We spent some time going over both Marzuq's and Michelle's backgrounds and then developing some questions for next week. The kids are all very excited and ready for their firs official interview as journalists.
