These slides are for our free group class. They are multi-lingual–the flags are language buttons.
What did you eat today? Did you do anything fun today? In the fresh air? Have you ever eaten insects? Why eat insects? I wish I could teach from a park bench. I could ride my bicycle around and stop at any park. I have a room. I could grow insects. I could make money selling protein bars.
How was your week? What do you do now? Do you like it? What is a ‘positive goal’? Do you have goals? I met up with a friend I hadn’t seen in a long time. We were best friends in high school. He has some gray hair now, and has gained some weight. But he’s still the same. We were able to talk again just like we used to.
How are you today? Do you wear nice clothes? How much do good shoes cost? Are you a student? Are stylish clothes important for students? So, today I found a great deal at the thrift store. I got a nice pair of shoes for $8 and a button-up shirt for $5. I feel really clean and confident wearing them. I feel ready for new opportunities to come along.
What did you do today? Where do you live? Do you like it? Do you want to travel? Where? I’m back in ABQ, in a place I know well, near family and friends. I feel different, and more clear now about where I want to be. Now that I’m settling down, I feel more free in a way. More free to build long- lasting things in my life.
What time do you wake up? What do you talk about with your family? Do you have grandparents? How old are you? What do you want to learn? Inside my cup, I have strong coffee which I will drink. Inside my head are the words which I will write. This is a story that a man in New Mexico wrote. I also have words.
Did you do anything fun today? Was it hot today? Do you have air conditioning? Do you cook? What food do you cook? In the morning, I met my friend for coffee. We walked a long way. It was very hot outside. In the afternoon, my sister and I went to the store. We made tacos for lunch. I was hungry.
How are you today? Good friends do what? Do you have good friends? What is a ‘responsibility’? Do you have many? At this point, what i want is pretty simple. To be in a place where I belong, with people who are good for me. And making a difference for someone else. If i can have that much, i’ll be satisfied.
How is the weather today? Are you creative? What do you do? Do you take pictures with your phone? Of what? You need to be interested in something. You need to feed your mind. It’s a living thing. Some people like to post cute selfies. It can be anything that makes you feel excited.
What did you do today? Do you work hard? For what? What does your family do? My neighbor needs me to watch her dog. He’s old and needs someone to hang out with. Now i’m just living life like i was raised. With a dog, walking in the park, laying on the floor.
How are you today? Did you go outside today? What did you do? Do you have many books? What kind of books? Envelopes are addressed and stamped. The mail truck comes here each day at 1:00pm. This book takes you somewhere, but I don’t know where. Each book takes you to a different place.
