Brenda Haid: The Power of Story

Brenda is a teacher, daughter, sister, friend, dancer and musician. She has been a primary teacher for 16 years with most of that time spent in the Grade 2 classroom. Brenda has also recently graduated from the Imaginative Education program from Simon Fraser University. During this episode, Brenda and I talk about the importance of wonder for lifelong learning. Brenda also shares about different cognitive tools which are meant to engage students and make learning memorable. One example of a cognitive tool is looking for the story of a certain topic and realizing that there is usually much more going on than originally meets the eye. Brenda and I also discuss if there are any downsides to wonder. Although I am a huge proponent of wonder, I thought it would be wise to critically examine this topic. I truly hope that you enjoy this episode and come away with a greater understanding of wonder, awe and the power of story.
