On our way to collect stories with Good Samaritan residents
Tammie Poe of Good Samaritan had a fabulous idea of the kids collecting individual stories. The kids got to enjoy a cookie and water-- so hospitable-- and listen to all kinds of events and tales. From remember when Mount Saint Helens blew to going to work during WWII, the kids learned a lot about life. Sharing with each other brings us closer together and getting to know what someone else has lived through is the best way. This meeting is part of our reading of Caddie Woodlawn.
Really interesting time!
Next, the students will take the information and turn them into poetry that they will get to share with the residents.
