Students need to see theirselves in what they read. What are your favorite diverse read aloud? Post below!
Names are important and this is one of my favorites to read and discuss!
This is one of my favorites! I used it in summer family literacy camps for children 0-8. It checks off so many boxes!
This is one of my favorites. An oldie but goodie!
I let the children pick a book to have me read. This way it is something that is of interest to them and then I will have the student share why it was a book that they wanted to share.
The Noisy Paintbox, the story of Russian artist, Wassily Kandinsky and his “disability” called synesthesia has really helped my students see their learning struggles in a much more positive light. Kandinsky turned his unique learning disability into an extraordinary ability. I heard my students say in convos with their peers how much they thought they were just like him.
