Education

The Secret of the Stone by Kathryn Lefroy raises an ethical question: After discovering a magical stone, how much are Olive and her friends willing to risk to make all their dreams come true? Students use this as a springboard to write their own movie script.

In The Boab Tree by Helen Milroy, Boab relies on the help of his friends to find his way home. Kids will feel comforted and inspired as they think about what feels like home to them and what helps them grow.

Let creativity cook up a menu of delightful food in this activity sheet. Students use descriptive language and emotions to invoke comfort.
