Teach your children with books.

Books can be an amazing resource—and reading books with your children can be a simple way to start a conversation. Children are naturally curious and will likely ask you questions about topics they do not understand. You can also use the story to ask your children open-ended questions to engage them in conversation.

The incredible teachers at my daughter’s school shared these books as resources that are appropriate for most elementary school aged children.

• Not My Idea, by Anastasia Higginbotham

Additionally, I would like to make you aware of a town hall hosted by CNN and Sesame Street which was be aired at 10am on Saturday, June 6th, 2021

Read. Learn. Teach. Love.
