The Name Jar | Yangsook Choi

I relate to this book because as a child I always wanted to change my name to something different, like famous people I loved names. As I grew older I realized that the best name was my very own name because it was unique to me.

This book is a great book for elementary school students at the beginning of the school year or if you have a new student coming to your class because like the character in the book she feels like she has to change her name because she is worried the kid in her new class wont like her. She tries to pick an American name. She eventually learns that the best name is her name she was given.

Alma and How She Got Her Name | Juana Martinez-Neal

This would be a good book to read to students prior to doing a name story project. I remember in elementary school having to ask my parents where my name came from. Even now, in college, I am still asked to do projects reporting on the importance of my name and how it is special to me.

"Alma and How She Got Her Name" was written and illustrated by Juana Martinez-Neal. This is a book about a little girl who is upset she has a long name, but her dad breaks down where her name comes from and why it is important to their family. The illustrations help tell this story by being mostly black and white. Throughout the story, but there are pops of reds and blues that make part of the images stand out.

I would use Alma and How She Got Her Name in the classroom to have children explore where they got their name from. I think this story could be used with a take home activity for children to learn more about their own background and family history.
