Cornell Square Park week 4

This was week five of Trace. We got a lot of work done on our project. We also had a little fun while we were at it. We completed our radio piece and were able to make visual art, such as posters and CD covers to go with the piece. We really worked hard to complete the piece. We had to record different voices, narrations, and edit the interviews we recorded. This week we also worked on keeping the park clean by collecting trash. While we collected trash we identified different insects and parts of nature in the park.
During week 5 we went to the Daniel J Nellum boys shelter where we explained to the boys what trace was and how they could get involved. We also explained what our radio piece was about and asked them if they had ever experienced adultism. They all said they had. While there we had a pizza party with the boys and just got a chance to talk to them. Outside of all the hard work we’ve done it was nice to be able to chill and still do work as well. This was a very productive week for the Cornell Square Park Tracers.
