****************************************** COURSE DESCRIPTION ****************************************** Join this one-time class where students will have the opportunity to engage in activities that will help them to understand the importance of Juneteenth. Students will learn the history of Juneteenth and we will commemorate this occasion through food, music, games, storytelling, spoken word, and more. I would like to encourage each student to bring snacks, a poem, song, game, or anything that would help celebrate. This is an optional request. Please note: anything presented must be kid-friendly, meaning clean and have no foul language, or offensive in nature. ****************************************** CLASS EXPERIENCDE ****************************************** Students will enter the room with music playing. Once all students are there, I will tell the Juneteenth story with sound effects and all. After the story, we will have introductions and a brief discussion about Juneteenth. Afterwards, students will present a story, poem, dance, or whatever they wish to present. Next, I will play an inspiring audio clip from a personal friend of mine, Adrienne Prather, a best-selling Author, then we will end with a game. During the class, we will be eating and drinking celebration food. This class will be very educational and engaging. ****************************************** REQUIREMENTS ****************************************** Dear Parents, a Laptop, Desktop, Tablet, iPad, Mobile Phone, or MacBook will be appropriate for this lesson. Please bring a 2nd device to play the Kahoot game if possible. There is a minimum of 3 students for this type of class, because it’s a celebration. If there are less than 3 students registered, you can decide to get a refund or transfer to another section. Please feel free to send me a message if you have any questions.
