English
Free, family-friendly learning from Rural Roots and Urban Roots, ready to use at home, in class, or in the community.
Urban Story Lab
A free communication and storytelling pathway for upper elementary learners. Build confidence, express ideas, and share your story with peers and family.
Your Neighborhood Has a Story
Every block, corner, and building holds a story someone lived. This lesson helps you start finding yours.
Structure Makes a Story Move
A story is not just what happened — it is how you tell it. This lesson introduces the three-part structure that makes stories easy to follow and powerful to hear.
A Family Learning Plan
A family learning plan is not a schedule. It is a simple shared agreement about how your family wants to learn together — what you care about, what you want to try, and how you will keep going.
Confidence Corner
A free life skills pathway that helps students speak up, regulate transitions, and support peers through routines, reflection, and practice.
Family Learning Circle
A free cross-program pathway for caregivers and learners who want stronger conversation, reflection, and family learning routines together.
Rural Reading Circle
A free literacy pathway for elementary learners and caregivers. Read together, build vocabulary, and grow confidence through story-based lessons designed for rural communities.
Stories Begin at Home
Every story you know came from somewhere — a kitchen, a porch, a field, a neighborhood block. This lesson starts there.
Words That Paint Pictures
Good writing helps a reader see, smell, hear, and feel. This lesson is about choosing words that do that work.
What Does Confident Feel Like?
Before you can build confidence, it helps to know what it actually feels like in your body and your mind. That is what this lesson is about.
