On the week of November 7-11, the Althea Augustine Technology Learning Center was prepping bright, one-on-one students for the upcoming November group origami session on the 16th.
Ms. Pat used an older publication to introduce children to the concept of indigenous peoples and an update on preferred terminology in a way they can grasp. We began with an exploration of this reported friendly encounter, as told in “Squanto and the first Thanksgiving”! Hopefully, further explorations of the Native American experiences will follow in weeks to come. These sessions ended with the students using Keynote, a PowerPoint-like app, on their MacBook laptops to type in names or titles, send to the printer, and cut out personalized Thanksgiving table tents for the dinner table. They were excited to surprise their parents and grands with them!
