I learned a lot about managing book clubs from Breathing New Life into Book Clubs by @LitLearnAct. Definitely a book I wish existed when I was a new teacher!

My author copies of The Joy of Reading arrived today. I wish that @ProfessorNana was here to see it, but I know she would be proud. It’s not ours anymore. Readers will have it soon! #readingjoy

Last week the nation witnessed a weaponjzation of the words from Stamped (For Kids) at the SCOTUS Confirmation Hearing. Thank you to all who responded to that disturbing display with antiracist actions. I couldn’t be more humbled and proud!

For #tvdsbliteracy Factual Friday, I’m recommending this fascinating graphic text by @boxbrown. I found it unputdownable! 📚❤️

Joy! Recentering the inclusion of Black joy & genius in February so it can be centered & celebrated all year long & all young people can thrive & see the joy in themselves & others all year long.

Still thinking this might’ve been a mistake, but it sure looks pretty. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

It’s not hard to see that a whole lot of people who currently care about what kids read don’t appear to read much themselves. They don’t seem to understand what books do. Books provoke, heal, inspire, and educate! The power and joy of books are well-known to readers! #readingjoy

Teachers, if you have not been affirming Blackness since the start of the school year, please recognize that your Black History Month lessons about Black oppression are a kind of educational violence many Black children are forced to endure during the month of February. 1/4

I have always admired @GwenBlumberg’s sketchnotes of units of study! I felt inspired this weekend to try it out on my own! These are my sketchnotes of the Third Grade @TCRWP unit - Character Studies. This has helped me dive into the goals of the unit 📚#cecheetahs #literacycoach

Today in ELA10, we had our first book club conversations! We’re all reading @JasonReynolds83’s LONG WAY DOWN. It’s my 1st time with book clubs, so I’m jumping in & reflecting for the future using @LitLearnAct’s (@SonjaCherryPaul’s) BOOK CLUBS guide.
