Stories about so many countries! Our Global Sleepover ⭐ didn’t know where to start. Storytelling is key to what we do because there is nothing more magical than the power of a good story.

When people ask: “what do you do at Global Sleepover?” our answer is: “well, we tell stories about the world.” But we do more than tell stories - our students create stories.

Here one of our Global Sleepover ⭐’s is reading a story she wrote about a Sleepover in Rwanda. 🇷🇼

A student draws a character showing different emotions. We teach empathy through character development during our workshops and camps. We all feel sick, upset, surprised and happy at some point, regardless where we’re from.

As we enter our third week of remote learning, PLEASE be mindful of how long your assignments take using new tech tools. Tech processes for many Ss are overwhelming & deplete motivation to persist in learning. #Modify outcomes and processes. #education #remotelearning #stepbystep
