My Family: My Story is a digital storytelling project that introduces families to museum collections and the way that objects can be used to create stories. We hope that you can take some ideas from the project described in this learning journey and adapt them to a school environment.
Families from a local school were invited to work with The World of James Herriot museum to create a family collection and digital family story, using their own homes and special objects as a starting point.
Through-out the project, the participants explored the stories that their chosen objects could tell people now and in the future, about their family, their interests and how they live.
