Session plan for interest level: PK-3 

Details

Ask your student if they know anyone who wears a hijab. As you are reading through the book, encourage your student to share if they do anything special to prepare for the first day of school. Ask what traditions they celebrate with their family. After reading the book together, allow time to ask the student how the book made them feel. Help your child define the word “brave.” After writing a letter, Asiya had a superpower of being able to ignore the bully. If your student could have any superpower, what would it be and why?
