books you can share with classes of young children.

Review and listen to lots of different stories to find those that most resonate with you. You will use the StoryLine Online to hear the books read to you.
Then you will select a set of books (3) that include representations of an identity with which you do not identify and write about the way individuals and groups with this identity were portrayed through the text and illustrations. Then describe what you learned from it.
