This I Believe
Posted on: April 23, 2010
These essays were written as part of the ALCP Intermediate Writing Class Winter 2010. They were inspired by the NPR series “This I Believe” and based on a lesson plan by Krista Sherman from readwritethink.org.
The next two students were kind (and brave!) enough to record their essays, so their words can be heard in their own voices.
