    Setting the right tone - first days at a new school
  

*by H***N on Reviewed in the United States on August 28, 2018*

This is a gentle, optimistic, and realistic introduction to the challenges that can confront younger kids at a new school. Think kindergarten to second grade, perhaps third. Parents can read it to their kids to open the door to a conversation as the new school year starts (“…But Mom, what happens if…?), or during the year when problems crop up. It acknowledges problems could occur and suggests a coping strategy.It’s a great book for teachers to read to their classes, to start a conversation on acceptance.It’s versatile; it can support kids who 1) have a different skin color; 2) don’t speak English well; 3) have a disability; 4) aren’t athletic; 5) stutter; 6) are poor; 7) are either shy or too loud to cover their nervousness; 8) eat different food or have a food allergy; 9) just moved from the city/country…See where I’m heading? It’s for all kids, because everyone has something they're nervous about.I liked this book for many reasons and I couldn’t fail to notice the author is a poet.  While the book is not a poem, the words flow like a river. And the pictures are colorful and friendly. Enjoy reading this with your youngsters.

    Read aloud for the joy & then pose questions for rich student-led conversations
  

*by S***C on Reviewed in the United States on September 22, 2018*

The kind of book that makes you weep the first time you read it and then feel like you HAVE to read this aloud to the kids in your class, family, community. We are all unique or not quite like others--which can make us feel alone in the world UNTIL we start to share our stories, our lives with others. Then we find that we are similar in some ways to those around us or that others are open to the new world we might introduce to them.Woodson's language is beautiful (of course) -"There will be times when you walk into a room and no one there is quite like you.""There will be times when...""There will be times when the world feels like a place that you're standing all the way outside of...""There will be times when you walk into a room and no one there is quite like you until the day you begin to share your stories."YES! Read this aloud for pure enjoyment. And then read it aloud again and pose questions for student-led conversations--questions that could also lead to writing.***Have you ever experienced a "There will be times when..."?***What does the author mean when she writes "There will be times when the world feels like a place that you're standing all the way outside of"?***Or a time when you only had your "brave self--steady as steel and ready" even though you didn't "know what you were ready for:?Rafael's illustrations are stunning. With illustrations of each child in that place at that moment (e.g., the classroom, the playground), but then also illustrations of the richness of that child's life (e.g., Rigoberto in a beautiful Venezuela, a girl seeing the world through books, etc.). You could project a two-page layout and pose questions like,***"What do you notice?"***"What do you notice as similar and different between the illustrations with Rigoberto on this page and this page?"***"Why do you think the illustrator chose to include that?"Several pages include an image of a ruler--maybe to signify that a particular scene is in the school but it also made me think about the pressure on kids to "measure up" in many ways when they are at school. Might be worth conversation with students.One more thought. Before reading aloud, ask students to make predictions based on the title. After reading this aloud, go back to the title and ask,***"What does the author mean by 'the day you begin'?" and maybe even "How can we do that right now?"

    Start your school year with this book!
  

*by S***N on Reviewed in the United States on August 29, 2018*

Educator friends, this is easily the best book for beginning a new school year that I've ever encountered! Jacqueline Woodson is one of my all-time favorite authors, and this book rises to the top of her many amazing works. If you work or live with children of any age, you need this book. Heck, even adults need this book! Picture books aren't just for children, and this book tells a story that may be universally felt. I will be reading it to 60 preservice teachers today, and I'm certain they will love it!
