Silly me: Narrated poems for our crazy times

by | Sunday, November 22, 2020

Shreya and I created a video a few months back consisting of a series of narrated poems written by her (and to be fair, a few by me as well ). It was just a fun, pandemic-related project created for the Sun Devil Learning Labs (SDLL). These labs were a streaming service for K-12 learners, created by the Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College in partnership with local school districts and youth-serving organizations. Essentially these were lessons developed and delivered by teacher candidates freely on the web learners once schools closed down.

The people behind SDLL, interested in early literacy, put out a call for people to read books for children. Shreya and I took this opportunity to create this video. Enjoy
