Yoga has taught me many lessons about myself, but most of them begin with "I am." I am strong. I am loved. I am enough. When I read this powerful book I knew I wanted to spread the "I am" lesson to my students. The message of this book is incredible not just for children, but for adults. If I could recommend a book for every person on Earth to read, this is that book.
After I read the book to my learners, they created an I Am display for their cubbies. They included literal responses: a son, a daughter, a 4th grader, a friend, a sister, a brother, a baseball player, a gamer, a dancer. They also wrote words to describe themselves: intelligent, funny, athletic, kind, creative, neat, organized, independent, and many other amazing adjectives.
