Learning Challenge: I wish my teacher knew....

This is the first time I have seen this story. I think it is a good way to connect with kids and really understand that not every kid is the same and you have to adapt as teacher to kids environments to connect with them and find out the best way for them to learn. Keeping this anonymous is key because a lot of these children would be embarrassed to tell others and now a days would probably get made fun of for it. I think this teacher had an amazing idea and I hope that teachers all across the country are using this method to help there students feel comfortable admitting something because I think that will help them with being able to swallow their pride and ask for help later in life. Its all about trust.

Reading Notes EC; The Theft of Fire

Myths and Legends of California and the Old Southwest by Katharine Berry Judson I love all these native american unit stories because it explains things like why wood makes fire when you rub sticks together, or why the frog has no tail. The coyote in all these stories seems to be the sneaky character but also people trust him and follow him.

Coyote and all the other animals would make a plan to steal the fire and bring it to the indians. They passed off the fire from animal to animal explaining what the fire did to each animal. Fire
