@goodreads There’s a monster at the end of this book by Grover.

[Mr. Lee @MrLeeReads]

This exists. And it broke my brain.

🎉 And just like that—the curtain falls on another school year.
To my students: You are ready for what’s next.
To my colleagues: Thank you for being part of this beautiful ensemble.
To myself: Take a bow—you’ve earned it.

[Mr. Lee @MrLeeReads]

Today is our last day of school.
Today, I’m soaking in every moment—the laughter, the stories, the pride.
What a journey it’s been.

[Mr. Lee @MrLeeReads]

🌀 Mid-May reminder:
It’s okay to slow down, breathe, and appreciate how far you and your students have come.

[Mr. Lee @MrLeeReads]

Literacy gives students a voice—sometimes in ways they didn’t expect.
Writing lets them claim their stories, opinions, and dreams.
That’s the real power.

[Mr. Lee @MrLeeReads]

The final stretch of the school year demands patience, kindness, and presence. Students remember how you made them feel more than anything else.

[Mr. Lee @MrLeeReads]

🌸 Reminder: Reflection is part of leadership.
This weekend, I’m asking myself:
“What worked well this week? What would I adjust?”

Teacher leadership isn’t about titles—it’s about influence.
Every hallway conversation, every collaboration with a colleague—that's leadership.

Praise the process, not just the product.
“I love how you structured your argument.”
“You really built suspense here!”
Feedback that mirrors real-world literacy skills is fuel for student growth.

🎭 Great actors—and great leaders—listen first.
Active listening in theatre mirrors active leadership in schools: understand the needs of the moment before you respond.

Leading in May looks like:
Gentle nudges, not big pushes
Reminders of growth, not pressure to perform
Celebrating resilience, not just results

🌟 Literacy isn't just reading; it's critical thinking, creativity, and connection.
Every book, every paragraph builds a student's ability to imagine and influence.
