Community Story #1

Yesterday in class we did an exercise that is a gaining traction in the education community. They found it to be a proven method in the Science of Reading that if the class participated in a collaborative story, they tend to retain more knowledge. So I want to try it! I want us to create a story. I’ll start it then we will add one line at a time from the comments. Try to keep it short, maybe one or two sentences.

The Giant Who Loved All

Just outside a small village, there live a lonely Giant. He was shunned for being different, but felt at peace living alone near the Forever Forrest.

Okay comment please so we can make this awesome story together!!!! Y’all have a Blessed Day!!!

We Stood There, Before the End

We stood just there, the day before our end;
your lips were shaking from the cold, dead air.
We tried so hard but, it was just pretend.

We once was everything, my dearest friend.
Our fears together fled to God knows where,
We stood just there, the day before our end;


 Our brokenness I wish I could but mend,
and on my shoulders all the pain id bear
We tried so hard but, it was just pretend.

 To the stars of our love we must ascend;
to face the trial of love we call unfair.
We stand right here, this day we call our end;

Why I am this way I cant comprehend
I wont give up, my dearest love, I swear
Ill try so hard, but fear its just pretend.

We push and pull, our cases we defend
It was coming, but caught us unaware
We stood just there, the day before our end;
We tried so hard but it was just pretend.
