The student attended the Guy Fawkes Festival on November 5th, 2010 to help promote the event and learn about how festivals are run. As part of their duties, the student handed out leaflets about the festival to people watching the fire dancers perform outside. They also distributed sweets to the audience while they waited for performances to begin inside the main building. Unfortunately, the student could not stay for the entire festival but they enjoyed the storytelling acts they saw and learned lessons to apply to their own school festival.

Documenting the Stories of Irene: An Ethnographic JourneyVTFolklifeCenter
Jacki McCarty, 8th grade English teacher and Sarah Ibson, 8th grade Social Studies teacher at Harwood Union Middle School partnered with the Vermont Folklife Center on a documentary project in the wake of Hurricane Irene.
In the early days after Hurricane Irene, eighty-five 8th grade students at Harwood sat down to write a prompt about the Hurricane and the Community Response. What grew out of that exercise was a semester long ethnographical interview project that culminated in 5 student produced documentaries.
This powerpoint, originally shared at the Vermont Association of Social Studies in Manchester, Vermont, details the origin of the idea, the scope and sequence of the project, and shows one of the
five final documentaries.
Including references to the tools, technology, and community resources utilized by students to successfully complete the project.

Girl fawkes festival review
1. Girl Fawkes festival Review<br />Our Creative and Media Class visit the South Bank on the 5th of November 2010 to. We went there to help the Girl Fawkes Festival with their promotion of their festival and also to know how festival is run and to experience the excitement, work of it all. We were given a brief statement of things we will be doing throughout the evening. We were also given a sheet that has the event order and what will be going on at what time. Outside the building where the main event is held there was an event called the fire dancers. This event was deliberately performed outside the main building event -despite the rain that fell- to tempt people into attending the real event. While the people were watching the fire dancers we (the creative and media student) was given an order to give out leaflet that as the information about the whole festival and what will be next. The fire dancers finally finished their performance with no incidents in between. We went back inside the main event and seated the audiences where there is an available space. I (Abisola) was given a box of sweet to give out to the audience who are waiting patiently for the upcoming performance that was to take place in the building. Unfortunately couldn’t stay for the whole festival but we got to watch some few performances and storytelling that makes the audience burst out laughing including me. <br />When looking back at what we did at the festival and what the people who made it happen, I have learnt a lot of things that can be applied to our own festival (Central Fest). Overall I have enjoyed myself and I hope that our festival is as brilliant as the Girl Fawkes Festival. <br />
