Never. Stop. Reading. Aloud. To. Students.
Reading aloud offers the listeners a chance to interact with higher leveling thinking without having to do the heavy lifting of decoding. Some students NEED this! @edutopia
Read-alouds may be just what you need to coax a reluctant reader to embrace literacy. 📚

LEADERS!!! Give people permission to OWN THE TIME. When you TRUST them they will fill in the gaps with whatever makes them better. Let them determine WHAT THEY NEED not WHAT YOU THINK THEY NEED.

It is extremely important for educators to work on their mental & physical health right now. Whether school is in person or virtual, we are dealing with stress that we have never encountered. Take time for yourself daily/weekly - read, walk, rest, spend time with loved ones.
