Lucy’s Class Notes

We welcomed each class to visit our galaxy. Acting as curators, the students designed ways to darken the room and illuminate the galaxy with flashlights, bringing their vision to life and guiding visitors through a storytelling experience. After each session, the class reflected on what went well and why, as well as which components they might try differently and how—making each experience closer and closer to how the curators envisioned it for their visitors.

The experience was curated to feel as though visitors were stepping into a galaxy and gazing up at stars, planets, and moons. Guests entered our reimagined universe through the original myths written by the class. They were invited to share noticings, ask questions, or simply take in the beautiful details painted across the ceiling.

While we are still welcoming guests to explore the galaxy, the class is simultaneously beginning work on the next worlds they will build. The galaxy represents an autumn world… any guesses about what their winter worlds might be? How about spring or summer? Stay tuned to find out!
