QUESTION:
Does the Bay Laurel Library have any books that focus on social awareness?
ANSWER:
YES! Thanks to our district, our school has just received some books that are dedicated to learning about social justice. Topics such as fairness to others, acceptance of differences, and equal rights for all are told through these books. As your students read at home, we encourage you to participate in their learning from the books they choose. Even if the books are not specifically about social justice, they can learn about fairness from what the characters are experiencing. This type of thinking will help your students become more critical thinkers while also helping them to be more aware of the feelings of others.
