We read a picture book a day during our community time. Today, we read Elmer by David McKee. After a discussion, the students came to the conclusion that the author wants us to learn to be ourselves. We are all different and that is the best! Don't try to change who you are for anyone. Be proud. Be yourself! We colored elephants, like what was found in the book, and are hanging them all around our classroom to remind us to be ourselves. I love how different they all are! |
