Parent Guide > Walk One Mile
Welcome to the parent guide for this text! Read below to find out about what your child is reading in class and how you can support him/her at home.
This week in class, we’re reading "Walk One Mile" by Baptiste Paul and Miranda Paul.
In "Walk One Mile," a speaker explains why it is important to understand and share in the feelings of others.
As we read, we will be discussing the themes of Community, Education & Knowledge, and Friendship & Family as they relate to the text. We are trying to answer these big questions :
"What is the importance of community?", "How do we understand the world around us?", and "What is a friend?"
