Step One: Information Gathering
I have read my neighborhood essay and highlighted turning points
I have visited the Brooklyn history blog and viewed the sites about my neighborhood, specifically “Forgotten New York” and the NY Times links
I have searched Google Images for photographs of my neighborhood’s past and present
I have looked through family photographs for old photos of my neighborhood
I have found historical photographs of my neighborhood that I can use
I have read Wikipedia information about my neighborhood
Optional:
I have done further research about my neighborhood’s history
Step Two: Photo Walk
I have chosen the route I will walk around my neighborhood
*Tip: using the neighborhood essay map is helpful
I have figured out which camera I will use for my walk
I have taken my photo walk
I have completed my note-taking sheet
I have reviewed my photographs to see if they cover the topics I need to cover for my project
If needed, I have taken extra photos
Step Three: After the Walk
I have downloaded my photographs to the computer
I have saved my photographs on a flash drive or CD
*Tip: see Mr. Salak if you need a CD
Step Four: Organizing Information
I have categorized my photographs into the topics on the assignment outline
After categorizing my photos according to the outline, I have chosen the best photographs to use to tell my neighborhood’s story
*Tip: DON’T use all of your photographs – only the ones that best tell your neighborhood story
I have written comments about each of the photographs I have chosen
I have put my photographs in the order I want to discuss them
