These materials will make a big difference in my students' learning for several reasons. We often have discussions about what to do when we're angry or sad but books get through to children in a magical way. My co-teacher and I also do lots of relaxing movement breaks with our students to help them find peace and calm but books with amplify these experiences! I have also requested some song books because music provides children and adults alike with a natural rhythm that grounds us, and is especially calming when we are experiencing big emotions like anger, sadness or distress. I have found music and song books in particular helpful in calming my students. They help children center themselves beautifully without having any words featured about doing so. Music also teaches important lessons about reaching out for help when we need it or reaching within to help ourselves, and my students would benefit from this tremendously.
