Classroom Library Reflection Checklist (Pre-K & Kindergarten)

Use this checklist to prepare a Pre-K and kindergarten library that supports early ASL and English development for deaf and hard of hearing children. It prompts you to include picture books with strong visuals, signed read-alouds and ASL story videos, and books that show deaf and hard of hearing children as capable and show Deaf authors and role models. It also asks whether texts are repetitive and concept-rich, whether books connect to daily routines and play, and whether children retell stories through signing and hands-on activities. Use it to plan and refresh your book corner.
