Write about a time you felt connected to nature, like the kinship in Native American myths

Prompt: Write about a time you felt connected to nature, like the kinship in Native American myths 

Response: I feel pretty well connected with nature and it's a passion of mine. I love helping animals, specifically reptiles and amphibians. I want to protect wildlife in my future career and make sure population levels in species are stable. I also occasionally do a lot of spiritual work outside during the summer. I like to meditate and help myself relax. 


Summary: Today in class we were introduced into the topic of Native American literature. We learned about the different themes in Native American stories and the culture in Native American story telling. We also explored the myths and facts about Native Americans.


Reflection: I've reflected on how Native Americans use nature to tell stories. It makes me curious how they explore those themes of connecting with nature. I am interested in this because I enjoy learning about spiritual things.
