At Homestead Elementary we teach character development through beautifully illustrated picture books.

We know that stories naturally and effortlessly engage students hearts and minds, allowing them to talk about their big feelings.

Students learn to empathize with classmates in a safe, and non threatening way. They learn people skills, gentleness, kindness, and uncompromising love through watching characters in books develop.

This leads to very purposeful, real conversations about life, relationships, family, friends, and always love.

There’s deep learning, not to be missed, from our Picture books a day with Mrs. Byrd!
