Usually, the photos I have of our SELI Young Writers clubs are the ones I've taken when I visit the school. Sometimes we get photos from the facilitators themselves, instead. Take a look!
These were just sent by Alieu S. Kanu from one of their Kabala Junior Secondary School meetings last week. This young boy is revising his draft after getting feedback in a content conference, and the girl in front of him is reading the latest issue of the Young Voices newsletter in which selected pieces of writing appear from all the schools where we have clubs.
The second photo shows a content conference. Usually, each author reads his or her work aloud for the others to listen to and comment on. This author must have had trouble getting everyone to understand what he was reading, so he is showing the text as he reads.
These students go home after school to eat and do some chores, and then return for the club meeting (no longer in their school uniforms). I love everyone's total absorption in writing, and the dreamy atmosphere of these photos, showing everyone in a cloud of learning!
