Description
"A story that helps teach young children that it's okay to say no. Feeling empowered to say no is a key foundation of consent. We Can Say No builds children's social and emotional skills and helps teach them that it's okay to say no. The fifth book in the We Say What's Okay series, We Can Say No follows Zakiya and Sami as they learn that their bodies, including their hair, belong to them and that no one should touch them without permission. Using the book as a read-aloud, educators and families can model the language Zakiya and Sami's teacher uses to support them. The author, who hosts workshops and trainings on teaching boundaries and consent for families and early childhood educators around the country, offers additional activities in the back of the book. Digital content includes a song from Peaceful Schools with downloadable audio files and sheet music. We Say What's Okay SeriesCentered around a class of preschoolers, this series helps teach young children the social and emotional skills they need to understand the complexities of consent. Each book covers a consent theme, such as how to recognize the physical sensations that emotions create, look for body language cues, ask for and listen to choices, and know that our bodies have value. With believable, everyday situations and diverse characters, children can see themselves and others reflected in each story-and develop a vocabulary to communicate consent and feelings. Every book in the series is accompanied by its own song from Peaceful Schools with downloadable audio files and sheet music."--
Description
Zakiya and Sami enjoy when Ms. Cindy, the librarian, visits the classroom and reads to them. But they doesn't like how Mrs. Cindy thought it was okay to touch their hair when she says hello. Their teacher, Mr. B., overhears their conversation, and encourages them to politely let Ms. Cindy know that touching others doesn't make them happy, and that there are different reasons people feel this way. The entire classroom learns that their bodies, including their hair, belong to them and that no one should touch them without permission. -- adapted from perusal of book.
