This I believe is a project that my teacher had us do. If you don't know what is it let me explain it to you...
"This I Believe is an international project engaging people in writing, sharing, and discussing the core values that guide their daily lives. These short statements of belief, written by people from all walks of life, are archived here and featured on public radio in the United States and Canada, as well as in regular broadcasts on NPR. The project is based on the popular 1950s radio series of the same name hosted by Edward R. Murrow." - Www.thisIbelieve.org/
That is what the website explains. Now for our project we had to do in class we had to type up a 500 word story about something you believe in. Our teacher said "You got to be able to finish this sentence "I believe..." then write about it". After we typed up our story, we had to put it in a program called Garage band, which allows you to record things and make videos. The end project our teacher wanted was a 1-3 minute audio of the story with maybe some music in the background and a picture to make it look nice. We read the stories that were already posted up on the website and it was amazing! There were sad ones, happy ones, scary ones, hilarious ones but there was a few mean and cruel ones. It has inspired me to look further into this website and keep looking around. I suggest going their, it has so many amazing people's writings.
What a brilliant idea for a project this was. One of the best I've had. Mr. Smith is an amazing teacher and deserves medals for his work. Just an amazing man.
