Happy Monday Mountain Lion Parents and Guardians!
Since we will be unable to hold an open house this year, I've attached a presentation about myself and this class. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions you may have.
This week, students will continue looking at narrative techniques and storytelling. All of our stories over the next five days will focus on identity. Here are some questions you can ask your scholar to get them talking about what they learned in school this week:
-Names: talk about the meaning behind your name, your child's name, nicknames, etc.
-Identity: what is the difference between what we know our identity is and how other people may identity us based on first impressions and judgement?
-Stories: what is your favorite method of storytelling? Share a favorite story with them, whether it be a novel, podcast, or movie they haven't yet seen. Talk about how important stories are in our world and why we tell stories.
I hope you all have a wonderful week!
