One photo can’t capture all of the tables full of middle level authors and educators!
Thank you Middle Level Section for putting this opportunity together. 📚 ❤️
I can't wait for today's #MakersInTheMiddle session at #NCTE24!
A room full of teachers and middle grade authors talking about books? That's my idea of a perfect afternoon. https://buff.ly/4eu2VKF
It's about to get real in this ELA, art, and activism session at #NCTE24. I call dibs on the Spider-Man action figure. #MakersintheMiddle is getting VERY hands-on this year!
Listening to Linda Coombs talks about TEK - Traditional Ecological Knowledge - and Indigenous ways of life. Excited to read her new book, Colonization and the Wampanoag Story. #NCTE24 #NCTE #makersinthemiddle
Linda Coombs said she's told that Indigenous people have "creation myths". She said, "No, we have creation histories" and I'm now realizing that I'm gonna need to take notes. #NCTE #MakersintheMiddle
Alethea Madonad (@uhleetheeuh) is dropping tons of gems on writing strategies today at #Ncte24. I love the teacher input happening in this session. That's why we call it #MakersintheMiddle. The teachers engage in these sessions!
Watching @aemaldo.bsky.social share mini-lessons and sample student work from her Social Justice Writing Unit 🔥♥️
