During our second unit, Holy Me, learners explored the light around us, and it can help us grow the light and holiness inside ourselves. We further investigated this concept with a photography project, learners were introduced to a disposable film camera and took portraits of subjects in our neighborhood they deemed praiseworthy. Many of the kiddos were unfamiliar with film. We explained that the camera was special because it only housed a limited number of photos and therefore we would not be able to have unlimited attempts of photographing our chosen subjects. Before they took their photos, learners were tasked with considering what it was about their subject that was praiseworthy and making a plan for the composition.
