I wrote the I'm Sorry Story after a few years of teaching fourth and fifth grades. There is a lot of conflict in life and helping students navigate through taking ownership of their mistakes when they hurt others, and making amends is a necessary skill in life. You might have noticed the Dyslexie Font, which has shown to be more helpful to many readers with Dyslexia. I wrote this story to help my students in a way to make it more personal.  I hope to make it a series with other social emotional issues being addressed.
