Connection Woke Read Alouds

 After school began after covid, I noticed that in many classes we began to share our pronouns when introducing ourselves. I realized how important this was very quickly. In the video the speaker explained how important it was to affirm people's identities. As a future educator especially, it is so important to make sure students are comfortable expressing themselves in a space.
