I taught this lesson using a picture book. Afterwards, my students told me how much they loved the book and asked if I had anymore books. I did not, but I began to slowly build a picture book library. By the next year I had enough books that I could use picture books to introduce new lessons. My goal was to have a picture book for every unit I taught. I began putting picture books along my whiteboard, never really thinking that students would pick them up on their own to read. I now offer extra credit opportunities to analyze picture books. I've had many students write in my course surveys that they love my picture books and it's one of the things they'll remember about my class. We've held class discussions based around their interpretations of the books. They have been a great resource, support for my content, but more than that, they encourage my high schoolers to read when they typically would complain about reading. I've seen them firsthand drive curiosity, interest, and inquiry. Your donation has helped expand my library with picture books on the most important topics in my content area. Topics of inclusion and exclusion, prejudice and racism, societal problems, overlooked achievements, and stories of real experiences. Thank you for providing my students with more stories and perspectives on history.","fullyFundedDate":1778710202815,"projectUrl":"project/high-schoolers-love-picture-books-too/10211649/","projectTitle":"High Schoolers Love Picture Books, Too","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Morris","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10484133_orig.jpg?crop=1536,1536,x0,y419&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1776972323793","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10484133"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_10733","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":305,"numTeachers":25,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":20,"percentWhite":35,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":39,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":4,"gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"12.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":72.5,"schoolId":10733,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Winona High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Winona High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/texas/winona-independent-school-district/winona-high-school/10733"}
