Welcome to Life Skills class!
Instructor: Debbie Lolla
Life is a succession of lessons which must be lived to be understood.
~Ralph Waldo Emerson
Week of May 20th and May 27th
Students will finish the year by writing in their friendship journal. Sharing will go on each week. Tall Tales will be
presented on May 31st along with the log cabin and pioneer newspapers. Finally, students will end the year with a
reflection called, MY BLISS!
Week of April 22nd and April 29th and May 6th and May 13th
We will finish reading the book, Because of Winn Dixie and create our own friendship journal. This is a great bonding activity.
It brings students together the way Opal brought the characters in the book together. We will also be creating a "Letting Go"
tree. We will let go of anything "bad" or negative in our lives. Finally, we will put the finishing touches on our Tall Tale and share
them with our parents at the log cabin presentation. The Winn Dixie movie is coming soon!!
Week of April 8th and April 15th
We will work again on our Tall Tale unit. Students will begin to create their own Tall Tale by brainstorming
characters, setting, and problems. Next week, students will begin writing their Tall Tale draft.
We will also get back to reading the book, Because of Winn Dixie and discuss the important lesson
Opal teaches us about caring about other people's feelings.
Week of March 25th
We will work again on our Tall Tale unit. We will read the book, Pecos Bill and John Henry to help us again, identify elements of a tall tale.
Students will move on to create their own Tall Tale after spring break.
