Social Emotional Read Aloud Books for Kindergarten

Help me give my students the Social Emotional Learning books that supplement our new curriculum! We love these read-alouds, and want to have physical copies for our students!

This project is fully funded

My Project

I am requesting these books because they go along with our new SEL curriculum. We love to do read-alouds in our class and these amazing titles support the social-emotional work we are doing.

These books support whole-child success and school culture improvement..

They focus on respect, responsibility, empathy, courage, cooperation, kindness, and other important themes.

Post-Covid, the emotional needs of our students have changed and we are trying to adapt. These books support our use of an evidence-based SEL curriculum that works toward improving behavior, increasing safety, and supporting mental health.

Please help us get the amazing books that support this work!
