Also had this extra special moment where Miss. Shatah read one of my new favorites “La Princesa and the Pea” to my kiddos. It’s a different kind of magic to see students connecting to books with words they can teach their friends 👑🌎

My favorite part of sharing a class with Miss. Shatah is the experiences she brings to our class. We decided to add a book all about Nicaragua to our library & she shared some of her favorite memories & how important her culture is to her. I feel lucky to do this w her every day!

If this doesn’t make your heart smile I don’t know what will! These kids bring me so much joy every day 🫶🏼📚
