![]() ![]() So this was one of the books to use in class meetings, but also when an incident had happened it helped us to reflect with children, once they cooled down, about their choices and empathy. ![]() Couple of years later I moved to a leadership position and I got this book for every classroom in my school and I had conversations about it with teachers. This book really opened a new perspective to handle my classroom management by promoting a sense of respect, responsibility and love among us. Every student feels inspired for all the positive things we all can do with our hands.and the importance and the POWER we have by being aware of it! I don ́t have to tell you that this is the book I used the most during many school years. Marieka Heinlen (the illustrator) was there, so she talked about the book, and she even signed my copy! So when I saw this book, I stopped and browsed it. "Hands Are Not For Hitting." That school year I was struggling with a student who was hitting his peers, and I was looking for something to help him move forward. Then, I saw it! Yellow, with beautiful pictures on its title page. I was in the exhibit hall at NAEYC in Chicago, walking through the booths.
