Authors of stories that provide actual historical accounts are invaluable primary sources that inspire students to learn more about the past and discover ways to influence change in the future. Their stories help students understand that they are not too young to impact their communities and the world using positive practices. "If they see it, they can be it!" My goal is that students will become curious enough to begin reflecting on their "Why" and understand that one is never too young to make a difference. Ruby Bridges' story has inspired our students to want to know more about her life and how her bravery led her to become a symbol in the United States that all children, regardless of race, deserve an equal education. With February being Black History Month and March Women's History Month, this is the perfect time for Ruby Bridges to share her story with our students. Her visit would complement our family engagement activity for our schoolwide book study that students are currently taking part in. Her story would encourage students to read more about her challenges and triumphs and other influential women's stories. It would increase participation and motivation from students, parents, teachers, and stakeholders as we form a partnership in becoming a reading community. Students will engage in collaborations, standards-aligned writing activities that include poetry, songs, and short skits, research projects, and an iMovie presentation as a culminating activity to wrap-up our project. Parents will also be involved in activities that will take place during our family engagement night. This will be a great way to spark students' interest in the midst of them learning remotely during the pandemic. As a school, we aim to encourage families to read together to foster students' emotional needs, promote family bonding, and increase students' reading proficiencies.
