CLASS 1 (16 March)

Dear Students,

Read this quotation connected with today`s class.

"I am only one, but still I am one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something. And because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do something that I can do". — Edward Everett Hale


Read the following story (Not our problem)

https://www.uua.org/re/tapestry/children/tales/session12/story1


Think about the questions and write about what you think the moral of the story is (5-10 lines)


  • This story had a pretty sad ending didn't it? What do you think the queen could have done to avoid having her whole kingdom burn to the ground?
  • What do you think the advisor could have done differently? (
  • Why do you think the advisor did not do anything to stop the problems that she saw? 
  • What could the baker or the butcher have done differently?
  • What could the other shopkeepers and neighbors have done differently?
  • What could the soldiers have done differently?
  • Who could have made a difference in this story?

Write a  modernized version of the story  as if it happened in your home or neighborhood or community. Maybe someone left a banana peel on the sidewalk, or a little toy truck on the stairs, and someone slipped which caused something else to go wrong until it was a disaster! Maybe one neighbour was too lazy to recycle, and then all the neighbors thought the city's recycling program had been cancelled, and people stopped recycling until there was so much trash that it started leaking out of the dump and into the neighborhood. (Try to make it funny!)   (15 lines max)

The written activities will be handed in in April.

Miss Mary Ann and Miss Sandra
