About This Lesson
16 Minute Video Lesson
Life moves in cycles of exponential generosity. The question is: To what extent do we participate when given the chance? The central American myth of Rualdo’s song presents us with a story of commitment to community, self-sacrifice, and a gift magnificent enough to cool a volcano.
This is a complete micro lesson on Social Emotional Development through the ethical lens of the Four Awesome Questions: Is it True?, Is it Fair? Will it Build Community and Better Friendship? Will it be Helpful to those Involved? Following the story, selected discussion questions are presented to engage critical thinking and authentic discussion.
