Today we will write drafts of Where I Am From poems. The purpose of these poems is to introduce ourselves to each other. Through doing this, we will explore how we are complex, interesting beings!
We will also get an introduction to some of the technologies we will use to give our poems a voice and talk about the power of sharing with a larger audience if you choose to do so.

You may use the magazines, or with help from staff begin a search on the iPad for copyright free pictures and save them on the camera roll. Begin thinking of ways you may quickly act out some of your sections.)

6. Wrap Up: What did you learn from this experience? What tips did you learn to share with others? (5 min)
Extension: As we have time, we will blog about some of our experiences in writing. Writing will also help you generate ideas for a future video production.

Describe your experience at the challenge course. What did you do? What were your goals Did you accomplish them? How did you feel, before, during and after. What did you learn about your potential?

Overview Today we are going to continue on our video production journey. We are going to focus on some of the main concepts you have learned in the leadership institute so far. As we move forward, continue to reflect on these words and their meaning in your life.
*Note: Today, staff will help you link your completed video creations to your blog.
1. Continue your Where I Am From Video. You may want to add some pictures from the OMLI. If you finish, continue on under the guidance of your staff leader.
2. OMLI Language (Discuss in small groups)
· Definition
· Examples from the institute, from real life
· Impact these words will have on your future
3. Language Video Challenge
Take 1-5 of these words and
bring them alive in 30 second - 1 minute video. (Song, art,
poem, dance, acting, descriptions, examples.) Here are some ideas of how to do that. Keep in mind the process.
Here are some ideas:
- Take 5-10 pictures or short video clips that demonstrate these words or tell a story about them.
- Give definitions of the words in your own words
- Give examples from life of positive and negative use of each of these words
- Demonstrate your "new" understanding of these words.
Wrap Up: Let your staff member know where you are in the process and what your plan is to finish on Thursday (ie. how much time will you need, what will you do to make sure you can finish.)
Extension: If you finish, journal. You may do this in your private journal or on the public blog.
Here are some ideas:
- Write about these words and what they mean to you personally.
- Write about your time at the OMLI.
