Lesson Outline
After examining Mad Max's plans to destroy Earth, we worked on a new comic book focusing on spelling. Since Rex is striving to save Earth, we talked about what makes Earth so special, all the animals and plants. Reviewed plant printing examples for future art projects. Kellan asked why Madagascar is so special and explained that the animals there are unique. I showed him some videos of lemurs and children, he thought the lemurs look scary and was surprised that I live with all black people for three months at a time. He thought there were no cities or internet in Africa, so I showed him some videos of nice hotels where I stay on Nosy Be and he approved of the accommodation, then we returned to saving Earth, focusing on the geographic location of Madagascar using Google maps. Was delighted that Kellan asked me to show him where Madagascar was, and he explored the maps on my iPhone with newfound curiosity! Then during my next session with another student he stopped by and said hello to the chameleon, which he initially also declared as evil but I think he is warming up to the animals. Showed him how we chip lemurs like veterinarians chip cats and dogs for identification (via field video).
