DAY 1 (Sept 6) Stephanie's Ponytail

Welcome to World Religions class!  I love teaching this course for many reasons - primarily you are at an age where you are ready to discuss belief systems, where you probably have a well-established set of beliefs yourself and where you are open to thinking about the way you think about things.

Today we read Stephanie's Ponytail, a children's story by Robert Munsch.  Stephanie's new hairstyles were being copied by her classmates and she didn't like this - in the end she got the last laugh.  This is a story about beliefs, opinions and the right of everyone to have their own.
