Dear Parents,
Today we watched part of Hannah's Story, a short documentary about a girl from Winnipeg, who was passionate about helping homeless people. As we finish up our unit on Roles and Responsibilities, I'm doing my best to encourage students to do a little inquiry about what they can do to create positive change in their communities.
You can stream Hannah's Story online (along with a whole host of other films by NFB--this is an amazing resource!). Here's the link: Hannah's Story
What you can do to help is help your child wrap their heads around a social issue in our community. Perhaps one that your family is already passionate about, so we can begin to brainstorm as a class about our next steps.
Sincerely,
Ms. Goegan
