Love this book!  I read this every year to my 2nd graders and then I ask them what they were nervous about.  They journal about it and draw a picture for page one in their memory books.  :)
How can we do virtual memory books? Any ideas besides just Seesaw?

This story is overall about manners and follows the mantra "treat others how you want to be treated". My favorite part about this book is the characters say the same phrase over and over again but in different languages. Right off the bat we learn the different languages students speak and they are so proud to share!

This book is about how one child making a stranger feel better with a sweet smile leads to a "pay it forward" chain of interactions that comes full circle in the end - great for social-emotional!

The BEST book for students!  This story is BEAUTIFUL!  This boy was a refugee and didn't want to lose his name because people couldn't pronounce it.  He makes a t-shirt helping people say his name with the pic of a sun and a goal... I have my students make one for their names too!
