@usedgov Thank you for recognizing the value of licensed school librarians. Please help states reinvest in school library programs led by teacher-librarians so we can reach every student with the information literacy curriculum so critical to our democracy. #ALibrarianInEverySchool

Teaching kids to ask good questions isn't about giving them answers, it's all about the questions. Great video example from @smokeylit #ipdx18

[Bud Hunt @budtheteacher]

I love @smkoeylit's response to "Why don't you have more grit?"

"Well, why don't you make school more interesting?"

Damn right.
