Literary Magazine 2013



This year's layout just shows how far we have come as a class.


Things that we did differently this year:

1. Lots of creative writing during the fall with feedback cycle so students learned to give and receive meaningful feedback.

2. Each student created their own individual small zine using the class's work for content. This was when they learned to use Adobe InDesign effectively.

3. Integrated art from our Chinese sister school, Souzhou Lida Middle school.

4. Added a theme that connected the cover to the content (birds).

5. Invited a graphic designer to speak to the class about innovated layout.

6. Published digitally! Copies available for purchase here
