Stop normalizing burnout! Rest is meaningful and powerful, regardless of whether our societal and cultural norms support and validate us!

@JoAnnFoxEDU A3: To me, a classroom library is diverse when the books act as windows, mirrors, and sliding doors into our students' lived experiences and identities, which allows for students to learn about each other! #caedchat

[Nicky Meindl @MeindlNicky]

@JoAnnFoxEDU A1: I would like to have a mixture of short stories and picture books so I can engage students in short segments in important topics! #caedchat @YehCathery
