SOCIAL DISTANCING "STORY TELLING UNIT" FOR JUNIOR STUDENTS
Dr. Cathy Miyata has been a life long friend and academic colleague
It is no suprise to me see her share out this amazing unit to Junior Teachers
at this time of social distancing during the Spring of 2020.

Dear Teachers and Homeschooling parents,
We understand that emergency remote teaching and learning is a challenge. We want to help. My student, Sarah Freeman, and I have prepared a remote unit for you based on the Ontario curriculum expectations for Language and Drama. It features personal and traditional storytelling as a means of building community, self confidence and self expression.
Please follow the links to her blog and drama unit below.This 10 module unit includes 16 original videos, many hyperlinks to sites and traditional stories from around the world, and 3-4 activities for each module. You can assign the entire unit or pick and choose whichever modules you think are more suitable for your students and children. All modules are student friendly and can be read by them independently. The unit was designed for students in grades 4-6 but the unit is very family friendly so siblings and parents can also be involved.We know how much you care for your students and how hard you are working. Parents, we know how hard this is for you, especially if you are also working from home while trying to cope with disengaged children. We hope this unit relieves you of some of this enormous burden. We also sincerely hope your students and children love doing this..
