My Project

It can go without saying, that the pandemic and the lockdown for almost a year, has affected our students socially, mentally, and emotionally. The Pre-K and kindergarten students I work with were not an exception!

Coy Bowles, author, and member of the Grammy Award-winning Zac Brown Band promotes social-emotional competence, creativity, and storytelling with an all-in-one kit based on his new book, Behind the Little Red Door!

This activity kit that I am requesting, has beautiful illustrations and lighthearted rhymes, and the book shows what might be behind an intriguing red door, from a field of red flying foxes to a room that’s upside down. My students will discover it could be anything…if they just use their imaginations! The kit is packed with engaging materials, including a CD featuring 10 original songs! There is also a storytelling board with 10 facial features and 25 storytelling pieces, skill-building activity cards, puzzles, books, and more!
