"There are only two or three human stories, and they go on repeating themselves as fiercely as as if they had never happened before."
-- Willa Cather
The juniors are discovering this truth through the study of fairy tales, while the seniors have realized it with their work with The Hero's Journey model this year. Whatever we study, the same pattern seems to be emerging. If the idea of the interconnectivity of text intrigues you, you may want to check out some of the resources at the Center for Story and Symbol. Both Year Ones and Year Twos will find something of interest among these scholarly articles. And best of all, this isn't some English teacher's website, it is for people interested in psychology and counseling.
