3. Quote from the famous writer James Baldwin
"None of us, black or white, knows how to walk when we get here. Not one of us know how to open a window, unlock a door. Not one of us can master a staircase. We are absolutely ignorant of the almost certain results of falling out of a five-story window. None of us drive a tank, fly a jet, hurl a bomb or plant a tree. We must e taught all that. We have to learn all that. The irreducible price of learning is realizing that you do not know."
What are your thoughts about doing a story on different learning beliefs and abilities? How did you learn a sport? Or how to cook? Or how to drive? What did you learn about your learning process? This is a rich place to mine for stories in our school. Discuss in your group.
