Here is the complete list of students who joined this summer:

Many students join the Storytelling Society by contributing thoughtfully curated collections around a theme of their choice. The IB Diploma Students use these as a springboard to Extended Essay questions for their 10-month-long research project.

Students can create from one of the templates, including book talks, media reviews, and more by joining Ms. Snow's Adobe Classroom:

Option 1: Read a book and create a digital project to share.

Option 2: Engage with storytelling through Media

Some students choose to engage with -or- curate media collections, many of which are now made by other Sequoia Students.

We ask rising 9th & 10th graders to engage; 11th & 12th to curate. Each collection includes:

  • a podcast
  • news articles (access the New York Times for free with the @seq.org address) or use our Gale database
  • Academic article from JSTOR/Art from ArtStor
  • Connect your public library card to Kanopy for films
  • social media threads that are reliable
  • infographics from databases

Once they submit their experience, students earn a digital badge to include in their signature.
