The Day You Begin

This was a perfect story to talk about appreciating differences in all of us. Once you accept yourself and who you are, is the day you begin.

This was a fun story to read at the beginning of the school year. I love that all my students were engaged and gave input at the end- some were able to share stories of when they felt like they did not belong. Its nice to hear them be so vulnerable and open, and for the other kids to embrace the differences and hardships.
