Here is a short introductory video to the Walk: [|Introductory Video]

Last October, in the early stages of the project, the following post was made on the [|Out of Eden Project Site]

Published October 5, 2012  Paul Salopek will be walking around the world starting this winter. Tell us about a journey you've taken, and explain how it affected you. It could be a trip you took to a place far from home, a walk you take every day, or something in between. We'll share here on this site for others to read (visit the site linked above to read some of the responses).
 * Share a Personal Journey**

Check out the link below where a 4th grade teacher talks about the way in which she has adapted some of the tasks suggested by the Out of Eden Project.

Did you know about Paul Salopek's Milestones? (Milestones)

**Milestones** Every 100 miles along the Out of Eden Walk route, Paul Salopek will pause to make a concise digital record of his location, called a Milestone. Each will consist of photographs of the ground and sky, video and audio recordings, and a brief, standardized interview with the nearest human.

Here's a great picture to use for a 'See, Think, Wonder' ... from the Out of Eden site: 

   

 ...a great opportunity to engage students in a Thinking Routine such as 'See, Think, Wonder' ... What do you see? What do think about that? What does it make you wonder? (See Think Wonder Thinking Routine)
