One Word, Six Letters by Adib Khorram.

Now reading. Told in second person and so well done! #CurrentlyReading #NowReading #YALit #KidLit #BookSky

Reader, I did not do my marking. I finished this book instead. No regrets, either.

What Are the Routines of So-Called Super-Readers? They read laps around the rest of us, wearing out their library cards and overflowing their bookshelves. They stack up hundreds of finished books each year. They are super-readers: people who read …

"Here for a Good Time" by Kim Spencer

Now reading. It's just kicked off and is really good, but I have to mark some middle school persuasive writing, which is not nearly so good. How do you get kids to understand that writing is a hard skill, that needs to be practiced? #BookSky #CurrentlyReading #writing #NowReading #KidLit

Lucky you!

I’m sure they didn’t! Unless your luggage is always the last off the plane….

Makes an excellent curse for someone you dislike — may their socks always slip down inside their boots.

A Suit or a Suitcase by Maggie Smith

Proposed political neutrality legislation offensive to Alberta teachers, ATA says | CBC News The Alberta Teachers’ Association says the provincial government's suggestion that educators don't act with integrity or present issues in a balanced way is offensive.

"Teachers are professionals,” he said. “They already teach the prescribed curriculum in a balanced, thoughtful and age-appropriate way.

"Any suggestion otherwise is unfair and quite frankly offensive to the profession."
