My Project

Books are a wonderful way to support preschool emotional development and early literacy. My goal for this project is to foster emotional development in my preschool students who have special needs while also sparking their interest in reading.

I am requesting the Little Spot of Emotion books to help my preschoolers with special needs recognize, understand, and express their emotions in a healthy way.

The other books requested will capture their attention of with interactive elements such as flaps to lift, creative illustrations, and age-appropriate language. The books will not only provide emotional value but also foster a love for books and storytelling.
