Presentations for Dec 1

The presentations were so good yesterday. I loved Shel Silverstein as a child and the depiction given in class today reminded me of all the reasons why. The tree to me is very much like a parent. No matter what, we love our children unconditionally. Another book that reminds me of the unconditional love of a parent is I'll Love You Forever.

The next presentation was over fairy tales. One of the group members showed me the Snow White story that told both sides of the story. I love this idea. I want to read this to my own children and nieces because I think it is a good way to introduce the concept their are two sides to every story and for us to teach our children not to judge.

The last presentation was Lemony Snicket's, A Series of Unfortunate Events. I loved the way this group first presented the story and then provided us as a class to interact in their lesson. The whole presentation made me want to read the book once I have the time.

  1. I love the book I'll Love you forever. My mother used to read this to me when I was a little kid. Now that I think of it I can put it with the Giving Tree story.
