While I'm not a fan of bats, I absolutely AM a fan of this "new to me" nonfiction text! The introduction. The organization. The text structure. The use of text features to teach more. This text has it all! #edusky #kidlit #educoach
Reading joy! Are we as intentional about explicitly teaching children that reading is (should be) a joyful experience? I really hope so. #EduSky #kidlit
Bringing this to our meeting this morning! Thank you for sharing. I was gut checked by the Q2.
It's absolutely ridiculous that it was allowed to go this far! Distracts from the beautiful work that is happening in so many places where the pendulum stays put so teachers can teach and kids can learn. I'm so grateful to be in that community of colleagues.
Do you have a teacher on your Christmas shopping list? One thing I can say with confidence is that you can NEVER go wrong with gifting them a great picturebook read aloud! Public librarian, @fuse8.bsky.social offers this list of some of the BEST published in 2024. #edusky #kidlit #booksky
Sometimes, the strategy post-it you're going to add to the #AnchorChart needs to be turned into its own 'menu' chart to better support transfer. Working with teachers to support responsive & explicit instruction. #edusky #educoach

Another professional goal centers around building collective efficacy among our school staff. Leaning into with curiosity is empowering! How about you? What are your professional goals this year?
I've added math to my coaching responsibilities. One of my professional goals is tied to improving our K math data, which means I'm doing a lot of reading, observing, practicing, collaborating with the K team.
Here’s a list of nonfiction kidlit authors and illustrators. go.bsky.app/DGnzPmV

What a perfect fiction-nonfiction pair!
Reading Enigma Girls earlier this year enriched my experience reading Bletchley Park now. Two terrific books.
Great recommendations here!
