In this one-time class, students will listen to a child-friendly (but still scary!) version of the classic Appalachian folktale called The Tailypo as retold by Joanna C. Galdone. We will begin the class with a quick check-in to greet each learner by name, then set a scary tone by briefly discussing some of our own favorite scary stories. We will move into our retelling of The Tailypo, complete with images and sound effects! The session will end with an opportunity to share our thoughts and feelings about the folktale, and perhaps even time to share a joke or two to bring our scary session to a fun and comfortable close. I value an emergent teaching style, in which I respond to student interests and needs as much as possible over the course of each session. As such, the order and content of each activity may be slightly modified to ensure that each young learner is as developmentally supported and intrinsically motivated as possible.
Metas de aprendizaje
Students will be able to listen and respond to a read-aloud of a traditional folktale.

Orientación para padres
This class centers around a retelling of an intentionally scary Appalachian folktale in which an elderly man hunts a creature to use its tail for food. The creature later returns to demand its missing tail before scratching the man's cabin to pieces. Family members should be advised that this specific retelling contains the following phrases/illustrations:
-"The man decided to go hunting to catch something for his supper" with an illustration of an elderly man walking while holding a large hunting rifle.
-"After many hours of hunting, the wind began to blow hard" with an illustration of an elderly man walking while holding a large hunting rifle.
-"The old man cooked and ate the rabbit and gave the bones to the dogs" with an illustration of the man resting in a chair, a steaming pot over the fire (contents of pot not visible). A large hunting rifle is mounted on the wall behind him. There is no imagery of the rabbit.
-"He reached for his hatchet, and with one lick he cut its tail off! Before the man could raise his hatchet a second time, the creature slipped out" with an illustration of an elderly man running while holding a small hatchet. A long, furry black tail trails out of the edge of the picture in front of him. There is no imagery of the tail being cut off.
-"He took that big, long tail, cooked it, and ate it" with an illustration of an elderly man sitting on a low stool and stirring a steaming pot over the fire (contents of pot appear to be a yellow stew). There is no imagery of the tail.
-"The man wanted to call for help, but he was too scared" with an illustration of an elderly man peering over the foot of his bed, an expression of shock on his face. There is a black and fuzzy creature with long black claws, yellow eyes, and tall rabbit-like ears looking back at him.
-"It jumped on top of that man and scratched everything to pieces" with an illustration of a black and fuzzy creature with no tail, long black claws, yellow eyes, and tall rabbit-like ears scratching a quilt into individual squares, which are flying around its body. A glimpse of an elderly man's shocked face can be seen behind some of the quilt squares. There is no imagery of or further language about the man being harmed, but that is the implication.
Requisitos previos
Though not required, an interest in and familiarity with scary stories would certainly be helpful!
Experiencia y certificaciones del docente
Massachusetts Certificado de Docencia
Maestría en Educación desde Wheelock College
I hold my MS in Early Childhood Education from Wheelock College at Boston University, and I am professionally certified in Early Childhood, Moderate Disabilities, English as a Second Language, and Sheltered English Immersion in the state of Massachusetts. I have over ten years of teaching experience at the early childhood level in a wide variety of racially, ethnically, linguistically, and neurologically diverse settings--lab, private, public, home-based, non-profit, co-op, and virtual--throughout the Greater Boston area. In October of 2023, I completed additional training as a reading instructor through the Ignite Reading Science of Reading Certification Program. I am currently employed as a reading tutor during traditional public schools hours, providing one-on-one phonics lessons to students in grades 1 through 8.
As co-founder of the National SEED Project Emily Style so adeptly summarized in her 1988 essay "Curriculum as Window and Mirror", curriculum should function "both as window and as mirror, in order to reflect and reveal most accurately both a multicultural world and the student herself or himself". This means that it is intrinsically important for ALL educators--including those who may not be members of a marginalized group themselves--to expose every student, regardless of their personal identity markers, to a multiplicity of cultures and ways of being in the world. To ensure that I am up to this crucial task, I have continuously pursued and successfully completed the following graduate-level coursework related to multicultural, multilingual, inclusive, and antiracist instruction over the past seven years:
* Racial and Cultural Identities-Wheelock College at Boston University
* Introduction to Inclusive Early Childhood Education Settings-Wheelock College at Boston University
* Effective Sheltered English Instruction: Second Language Acquisition-Wheelock College at Boston University
* Impact of Special Needs: Early Childhood-Wheelock College at Boston University
* Mathematical Learning for Diverse Learners-Wheelock College at Boston University
* Becoming a More Equitable Educator: Mindsets and Practices-Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)
