Youthful excitement

I spent a full day today doing something I absolutely love to do and really should be doing more of- teaching.

I taught them basic design terminology and helped them get together a stylebook that they will be utilizing all year. This Thursday I'm returning to help them get together template layouts for all their sections and teach them the nuances of "magazine-style" layout which is what they've decided they want to employ throughout the book. Wonderful.
