Welcome to Open the Magic Headquarters where book lovers unite! I am a current teacher who values picture books being used in the classroom to engage and inspire kids. I implement picture books during Morning Meeting, to teach content and to model SEL in my upper grade classroom. I believe that picture books provide confetti moments for all readers. My hope at Ramona Recommends is to provide teachers and parents with picture book recommendations and engaging ways to use picture books with kids! Lets go OPEN THE MAGIC!
