I chose to complete a paired text project on social emotional learning, because I believe that it is crucial for the developmental age of children that I work with. It provides a great set of stories that I can read during story time, and be able to have those meaningful conversations with children.

For my final inquiry project, I decided to use the "10 quick ways to analyze children's books for racism and sexism." I chose to analyze the book "The Rough Faced Girl" This was such a great took for me to truly look closer at a story and see what makes a children's story acceptable to be shared in a classroom.

For our final inquiry project we decided to do a text set with 8 books that surrounded the theme, kindness. We each read a set of books, and analyzed it based on how we saw it fitting with the theme.

For my final inquiry project, I made a read aloud lesson that focuses on students being able to identify the who, what, where, when, why and how of the story. This textual evidence is used to help students identify the main message of the story read. I chose the story "What if everybody did that?" This story is about a little boy who go makes actions that may affect other people. Throughout the story we learn that our actions can impact people and things way more than we may think so it is important to understand this life lesson.

For my final injury project I decided to pick 10 books and make a text set. I picked the theme kindness for my text set. In my powerpoint you will be able to see how I have organized every book. I did one slide that talks about why the book fits into the theme of kindness and the literacy activity that goes with it. Then I had another slide of all the information about the book. I learned a lot from this project, how even though books may have the same theme they can go about explaining that theme in a completely different way. I explained a little more about this on the last slide of my Powerpoint for why I chose to do a text set and pick the theme of kindness.
