Found on OneNote (See “snip” on portfolio page).
In the OneNote Notebook, there is a section for
“Affective Support.” Within this section, there is a
tab titled “Bibliotherapy” with the sub-tab,
“Children’s Books.” Here is a list of children’s books
that can address various social/emotional needs in
the classroom. The list of books is organized by
topics: perfectionism, self-managing emotions,
growth mindset, being different/identity/belonging,
anxiety, cooperation, and social responsibility.
Images of the books are here along with Titles and
Authors’ names.
This list is incorporated into the OneNote of
resources for K-2 teachers. I developed this list with
the help of the counselors who I collaborated with,
which is also one of my practicum goals.
Level 4
It took a lot of time to search and sift through the
books in the counselor’s office for ideas, as well as
meeting with them for recommendations. I also
spent a lot of time researching books online to
address the various topics. I often spent time
watching these books “read alouds” on YouTube.
To compile all the books took several weeks.
