I don’t remember why I hated „The Rainbowfish“ it just made me really sad for some reason, but I was SO convinced it was my mothers favorite book at the time 😂

Can't wait to give jaxson his new book when I see him next. The rainbow fish was one of my favorites to read as kid I had to buy him a copy. I also couldnt help buying myself a couple of books. ❤📚 #therainbowfish #marcyspfister #thewaterdancer #tanehisicoates #lightfiltersin #carolinekaufman #lightfiltersinpoems #books #love #target #booknerd https://www.instagram.com/p/B7AAFh5gIjo/?igshid=1gcp3vnl5uu6e

"The Rainbow Fish shared his scales left end right. And the more he gave away, the more delighted he became. When the water around him filled with glimmering scales, he at last felt at home among the other fish."

Response Number One - 

I remember clear as day the book, ‘The Rainbow Fish’ by Marcus Pfister. Each time the teacher read it, all students were actively involved and engrossed in the reading. We would make comments throughout including, “I wouldn’t want to be his friend” and “Why won’t he just share his scales with the other fish?”. I always remembered feeling sad for all of the other fish and angry at the Rainbow Fish for being so selfish. Little did I know I was learning one of my most valuable life lessons. By the end of the book I had; reflected on my own actions in social situations and learnt that having everything you want doesn’t always mean you’re happy and that sharing and being kind goes a long way.

My most memorable learning experiences were ones in which were not explicitly taught, often through the use of books. In my future teaching practices, I will use children’s literature to teach both explicit and non-explicit material, making learning more meaningful, enjoyable and less of a chore for students. Still to this day, 12 years later, I remember and live by many of the life lessons that various texts taught me. That is what I want for my students.
