Stories about Navajo Four Seasons, Native American Cradleboards, Pia Toya Story, Parent Committee Special Projects, and Powwow Dancing.
This lesson utilizes the experience-text-relationship method to enhance comprehension of the story "Coyote and the Rolling Stone," a traditional Goshute tale. It includes an experience-eliciting discussion/activity, a discussion about the students' reading of the story, and a discussion relating students' experiences to the content of the story. This story should only read told or read during the winter months. The Native American Indian Literacy Project was made possible by funds from the Utah State Office of Education (USOE). It is a joint effort of the USOE and San Juan School District Media Center. These stories come with glossaries of traditional language vocabulary and teaching points. The Kennedy Center's ArtsEdge "Elements of Dance" lesson plan (http://bit.ly/2Em9JZN) for teaching dance elements can be tied in with "Coyote and the Rolling Stone" by incorporating the action words used in the story for choreographing a dance movement experience as a class.Lesson Plan Author: LeeAnn Parker

FLORA MEETS A BEE by Morag Shepherd is a humorous and heartwarming tale of foster care, the importance of the hive and the power of friendship, created specifically for grades K-3. FLORA MEETS A BEE by Morag Shepherd is the story of eight-year-old Flora, who has lived in six foster homes since the age of five. One day Flora meets Bee and their budding friendship changes everything. Bee understands Flora no matter what language she speaks or how much she avoids sharing her true feelings. Flora sees the kindness just below the surface of Bee’s rough, worker-bee exterior that most people may not take the time to see.
The study guide includes activities that will help K-3 students meet core standards in reading, writing, science, social studies, and human development.
FLORA MEETS A BEE received its world premiere as Plan-B Theatre's 2019/20 Free Elementary School Tour, serving 15,000 K-3 students across Utah. Funded in part by the National Endowment for the Arts and the Utah State Legislature via the POPS (Professional Outreach Programs in the Schools) Program.
This is the study guide that goes with the program "Flora Meets a Bee" which is also available in eMedia here: https://emedia.uen.org/courses/flora-meets-a-bee.
