Welcome to 1 of WE Project!
This blog is for information and sharing, concerning a national project for 4th grade students. The vision is to Incubate – to nurture and encourage participation and contributions of the youth of WE the People.
Plans are in process to visit one school with four classes of approximately 15 students in each class and for every state and territory in the United States of America, in ONE YEAR’S time. It is our intention to begin this project in Rochester, NY for the 2010/2011 school year until it is complete.
Each class will participate by choosing their own theme, writing, photographing/illustrating and producing their own hardbound book of poetry, in approximately THREE DAYS!
Participants are recommended by their teachers and selected based on their interest and some form of lottery if more than 60 students per school (maximum) are willing to take part of this national project.
Each poet/photographer will literally publish their own hard bound book.
Each poet/photographer will have his or her own copy to autograph, keep and share with their friends and families. Each school will receive a copy. Additional copies will be made available for purchase and as gifts to some surprise recipients!
Each participant will be presented with a certificate to be received during the class party, class book signing and class publication at the conclusion.
Each poet/photographer will write a letter to a participant in the next area where the next class takes place and an active member of the United States Military. PEN PALS will be forged.
The scope of this project by it’s very nature, is designed to involve each participant in every single subject taught, in the school’s curriculum.
At the conclusion of this project, signed copies of every class book, from every state and territory of the United States of America will be made as a special presentation in our Nation’s capital.
1 of WE project are answers and solutions to the complex problems of our country, from the youth of our country, each vital to US and each one, 1 of WE the People!
