In September students participated in our first school-wide seminar for the 2023-2024 school year! Our text for this seminar was Elephant in the Dark (based on a poem by Rumi; Retold by Mina Javaherbin). In this seminar we discussed the values of perceptions, truth, understanding, differences, and cooperation. For our post seminar activity, students worked in groups to write and/or draw what working together or solving a disagreement might look and sound like in our classrooms.
Ask your child about this engaging and meaningful learning experience!
