My five and six-year-old students come to school each day with a variety of emotions. Some come to school eager and excited and others can be angry, depressed, lonely, and worried. Every child brings their own unique experience to the school. Some children really struggle in dealing with their feelings. They don't understand what they are or how to process them. Quality picture books are a great resource to help children understand and cope with their complex emotions. I have some great books that have been very helpful to my students. I think with the additional titles I have selected, I will be able to reach more students and help them to connect to the learning. My goal as an early childhood educator is to build self-esteem, self-awareness, and self-confidence in each of my students. I want to send my students out into the big world of first grade and beyond with a solid emotional foundation to help carry them on their journey.
