A Story With Ms. Cohn
Ms. Cohn, our speech/language pathologist, visited our classroom today to share a story. It was about a woman who made beautiful quilts to give to people who needed them. she taught a greedy king how to be happy by giving instead of receiving. He was rewarded with a feeling of happiness and with one of her quilts! Ms. Cohn brought quilt pieces with her as well as a globe to show the many places the king visited giving gifts. We had a great time!

Mrs. Couture, as you know "The Quiltmaker's Gift" is one of my favorite books with a touching theme and beautiful illustrations. I loved how it tied in with your "G" lesson-great timing! Mostly,I was so impressed with the understanding and sensitivity your students expressed when we discussed what it really means to give and that giving doesn't always mean "stuff".
