Quick Ideas for Using the Video:

  • Have students research labyrinths and then design and execute their own. These should be sketched on a board first, to make sure they work. Students should then complete their labyrinths by gluing colorful small rocks to the board. Labyrinths are meant to evoke inner peace so have students add positive words or poems along the edges.

 

*Story videos employ a narrative form to highlight a topic, location, or practitioner in the area of study.
