Students will read the books in both Spanish and English and can practice their newly acquired skills. They can use the easel to draw and write giving them a means to express themselves. As a social worker, I see many students that are having difficulty adjusting to a new culture, often I see behavioral concerns and through drawing and playing they are able to express their feelings. I have worked with children who have been able to deal with adversity and challenges through play and the ability to express their feelings. These can be a barrier to learning and once dealt with can improve the child's chances of being successful in school.
