One book I love to share with kids because it celebrates the joy of their lives, identities, and existence would be the exclamation point by Amy Krause Rosenthal. #g2great
My college professor Dr. Pecorale has been the biggest influence on my collection of books. She has such a genuine and amazing sense of knowledge when it comes to literacy. She is always up to speed on what is in and how to create lessons. #g2great
W/o those 4 things those four walls that children are in for 7 hours daily r not comfortable. As we work to cultivate these relationships with our students we need them and us to trust one another with mind, heart, and hands within the community. #g2great
Students need to have books that show other people making a change and seeing all of the effort that goes into the process. Sometimes students need that little push to get them going in the right direction. #g2great
students need to have the ability to see themselves within a book in order to connect to the characters and the lesson that is trying to be conveyed. Once they can relate we can have in depth conversations on a personal level with them. #g2great
Personally I take advantage of the reciprocity of reading and writing by having the students respond to a text in written form during independent reading time about the book they are reading. #g2great
@Neilltheteacher this is such a great feeling!! Sometimes you think nobody is engaged within a read aloud and then you have those students who want to read it a bunch more after you are done!
I have seen RA virtually help take me as a teacher not knowing how 2 get a student to write nonstop within their writer's notebook. I used the Mo Willems Pigeon series to help find a love for writing in a 1st grade one-on-one tutoring session #g2great
@JoEllenMcCarthy Of course, anytime! I have actually shown a bunch of my coworkers the books and they have purchased it and can’t wait to get a hold of it! Looking forward to tonight, thanks again for everything!
Hey my name is Elizabeth Holter Checking in from Long Island University! So excited for tonight and love the book! We are reading it for our class and its one of my favs!! #g2great
