Thank you, Samantha @teachiedual for sharing your experience and expertise about teaching multilingual learners with my preservice teachers @JudsonU

Another "go buy this book" alert! This story from @ediblewords and @shihopate is a beautiful representation of intergenerational tradition and culture. Fantastic descriptive language and a great example of growth mindset, too! 😍

@MrsBlaszynski I love the untied shoelaces!!! 😂😂

[Kristy Piebenga, EdD @KPiebenga]

This book from @RichardAyoade and @tormalore! 🤩 Narrated from the perspective of a book with can't-help-but-laugh character voice and illustrations, EVERY upper elementary/MG student will want to read this one! 😂

[Kristy Piebenga, EdD @KPiebenga]

I love a new twist on a classic! @ericaperl and Amy Young do not disappoint! Fantastic word choice, fact-filled back matter, clever female characters (LOVE their revised banner), and fluffy wiggles (kids will giggle at that page😂). Make yourself happy—go get this book!

Cheering on the @judsoneagles men’s volleyball tonight!

[Kristy Piebenga, EdD @KPiebenga]

This is your sign to GO BUY THIS BOOK! @amandajhenke and @AnnaDaviscourt have given us a laugh-out-loud book with adorable, informative banter between characters…as well as appreciation for our more prickly critter friends.

[Kristy Piebenga, EdD @KPiebenga]

Excited to get into my weekend read! I love me a book from @AuthorNPreston 👏🏻👏🏻

[Kristy Piebenga, EdD @KPiebenga]

I love this brilliant new find! Vivienne Chang and Eugenia Yoh crafted a beautiful story about finding home in a new country. As a bonus—contrasting end papers! My favorite! @viviennechxng

@teachiedual @TanKHuynh @DrCarolSalva @ValentinaESL Also love this book to start discussion about empathy for students trying to navigate a language barrier.

[Kristy Piebenga, EdD @KPiebenga]

@teachiedual @TanKHuynh @DrCarolSalva @ValentinaESL I love The Suitcase! It is great for discussion about judging newcomers before you even know their story!

@laurie_ringe How lucky for them to learn from you!!
