How can Molly Lynch's Feel Better Books help students feel connected during absences?

Feel Better Books are a wonderful way to help students feel connected to their classmates during extended absences due to illness or injury. Each student in the class writes a letter to the absent student, which can be a great opportunity to review friendly letter-writing skills. These letters are then compiled into a book, which can be mailed to the student, dropped off at a hospital, or delivered to a parent. This thoughtful gesture not only lifts the spirits of the absent student, but also strengthens the classroom community by giving students a chance to show they care. It's a sweet way to remind the absent student that they're still part of the classroom family, even when they can't be there physically.
