"Why Boston?"

Today our Abbey Roader's were given a fun activity to help them think about questions such as "why Boston?" or "why this college?" In order to get the creative juices flowing, students were challenged to an eight item scavenger hunt in the area around Emerson College. Students' were asked to go to a book store, historical monuments, and even a clothing store! After the scavenger hunt students wrote a reflection on what makes Boston unique and a great place to attend college. They then took that information and applied it to one of the colleges we have visited and thought closely about why they want to attend that school.

Below find some of the students' photos and a video from the hunt!
