Just a quick post on something really cool that St. Petersburg schools have been doing --- every year they have a "Day of Journalism" where students from different schools around the city come together, are mixed into groups of 5 or 6, and spend an entire day working as a group to create a page for a newspaper. They act as journalists, have interviews set up, talk to passers-by to get opinions and statements, and write about different social issues in their city. By the end of the day, the groups come together to present their work, and join forces to create a very professional looking edition of a digital newspaper. I thought it was so cool, I had to share it! Here is a front page from their theme "Tolerant St. Petersburg":
