Say Something!

Author/Illustrator: Peter H. Reynolds
Key Skills: Identifying Values, Self-Perception, Self-Efficacy, Self-Awareness, Respect, Empathy, Perspective, Social Awareness, Finding Your Voice

This book is ALL about finding your voice and practicing with using your voice in ALL the different ways you can! I don’t think I can appropriately represent everything that is covered in this truly phenomenal book because you can read it again and again and receive new learning each time.

I believe that it IS our job to help students develop their voice. We do that by supporting their self-awareness and social awareness (SEL competencies). When students understand themselves and can see what’s important to them, and see that they can make a difference and have a positive impact on the world in some way. Their voice is what will help them do all of these things as well as push to live their most meaningful lives.

At the end, Peter shares this wonderful piece of empowering wisdom: “Your voice can inspire, heal, and transform. Your voice can change the world. Are you ready to say something?” That is absolute perfection in my opinion.
