Ah! Thank you for sharing and for your kind words.
I highly recommend Checkology resources for grades 6 and up. #newsliteracy #tlsky #edusky @newslit.org @weareteachers.bsky.social
For elementary students, I recommend Here's Hank and Hank Zipster. They're 2 series with funny adventures of a boy w/learning differences. They're coauthored & inspired by the true-life experiences of Henry Winkler (The Fonz), who had undiagnosed dyslexia. www.penguinrandomhouse.com/authors/5594...
Great suggestion! Thanks for sharing.
SHOUT IT FROM THE ROOFTOPS!
“It is much easier…to make a picture book adults respect than it is to make one children actually adore. Adults can be won over by concept and good intentions. Children demand craft. They demand timing. They demand momentum.”
We arrived n Taipei and are checked into our hotel after 30 hours of travel. I rode in three planes and touched down in four time zones. Ready to explore the area tomorrow before programming begins in the afternoon. #fulbrightteach 🇹🇼
Joined my travel cohort n Seattle and we’ve boarded our plane for the international flight. In 13 hours, we’ll be in Taipei for our Fulbright Teacher Exchange. ✈️. 🇹🇼 #tlsky #Fulbrightteach
It was a quick fix. Glad to see them excited about books!
After our Mo Willems author study, some over-excited kindies plundered the Mo Willems shelves. #tlsky #librarianlife
One week until I head to Taiwan for my Fulbright Teacher Exchange! I’m working through my to-do list to prepare. So excited to bring new learning home for my students! #fulbrightteach #exchangetheworld #fulbrighttgc #fulbrighttaiwan

While in Taiwan, I get to attend a bilingual education workshop on food and culture, which includes a special authentic Hakka cuisine lunch. I am going to learn so much! #FulbrightTeach #globaleducation #tlsky
The countdown has begun! In 30 days, I leave for my Fulbright Teacher Exchange to Taiwan. #FulbrightTeach #globaleducation #tlsky #edusky

@dawnaz.bsky.social Thanks for your interest! I will be sure to post a link once the article is published.
Feeling gratitude for freelance opportunities that let me use my skills as an educator, librarian, and writer to publish new content. I am working in an Edutopia article on books with neurodivergent characters and have a We Are Teachers assignment about news literacy. #tlsky #edusky
Working on learning a few phrases in Chinese for my upcoming trip to Taiwan. #FulbrightTeach #TeacherExchange
I love this community connection!
Our local Little Free Library was almost completely out of kids’ books, so I added some titles and reorganized. After I add books, I love checking in periodically to see what’s been selected. #bookjoy #lfl @littlefreelibrary.bsky.social
