In this one-time class, students will learn about the life of the Warrior Queen, Nana Yaa Asantewaa of the Asante Kingdom. In the midst of injustice, she was fearless, courageous, and led her kingdom by example to defend their most priced possession, The Golden Stool. She is much loved and a celebrated figure in the history of Ghana. The class will be taught using a combination of storytelling and a slideshow presentation. In the end, students will not only learn about Yaa Asantewaa's life and legacy but will also gain some knowledge about the Asante Kingdom of Ghana. If time permits, we will play a quick game to review all that we learned. See you in class!

Welcome Outshoolers!
My name is Dalen, and I am excited about the opportunity to be part of your child’s learning journey! I hold an MPhil in Sociology and a Bachelor’s degree in Sociology and Social Work.
I love to engage with kids through stories because I believe storytelling is a powerful tool to teach and inspire curiosity.
I enjoy learning and teaching about the different cultures that make up our world. I offer classes in history, social studies, geography, life skills, and arts & crafts. I’ll describe my teaching style as interactive, supportive, and engaging.
On a personal note, I grew up in Ghana, West Africa. If I’m not spending time telling Ananse stories to my kids, I enjoy baking healthy treats and experimenting with food from around the world.
Join me as we discover the beauty of our world through captivating stories, food, art & crafts, and much more. I look forward to helping your child on their learning journey. See you in the classroom!Reviews
