StoryCorps is working with high school teachers across the country to ask students to interview a grandparent or elder over the 2015 Thanksgiving holiday weekend.

4. Come up with a questions list – as a group – about Journey.

5. Practice using your phone if your have a phone that can record. (Lisa will look into ordering digital voice recorders if needed).

6. Over Thanksgiving break conduct at least one interview with an older adult on the topic of “Journey.”  Take at least one picture or sketch to go with your interview. The picture can be of the person or something that you think matches what they were talking about. For example, if they talk about immigrating from another country, you could take a picture of a flag from that country.
