 What’s your favorite thing to share with your students?    

The LOVE of books & listening to stories!  Each year, I give each student 3 books throughout the school year - 1 for their birthday, 1 for the holidays, 1 for end of year/Pre-K graduation.  I want my students to enjoy the wonder that books/stories offer & support their early language & literacy skills (*Amazon or Scholastic online bookstore are the places I shop these books).
