Miss Osi's Favorite Books

Oh, the Places You'll Go by Dr. Seuss, is one of my favorite books. This book is about life and the challenges you'll face along your life journey. I think the books is amazing for inspiring motivation to overcome any hardship. I would use this book in my classroom at the end of the school year to  show students that they're about to start a new chapter in their life and accomplish lots of amazing things and then have the students write about those things that they hope to accomplish in their future.

The Giving Tree by Shel Silverstein, is a book that teaches about giving. In the book, in order to make a small boy happy, a tree gives all it has to the boy throughout all the stages of his life. I would use this book In my classroom when I'm teaching my students about giving and the importance of being grateful. A good activity to do with this book would be to have students write about a time they gave something to somebody or to write about the things that they are grateful for.
