385 copies of The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane by @KateDiCamillo are ready to go to families for our One School One Book tomorrow. I can’t wait to take this journey as a school community! #fallingwaterselementary
This shape hunt I made years ago on @Seesaw is still one of my favorite lessons. I love seeing students creative thinking and the different items theyfind for each shape. #learnandearn
Hi teachers! To celebrate the upcoming release of our newest graphic novel, I'm giving away 5 signed copies. Retweet to enter. I'll contact winners by DM on September 5. @Scholastic
More giveaways soon. LOTS happening in the I Survived world this year!
Today, some of the books that shaped my life—and the lives of so many others—are being challenged by people who disagree with certain ideas or perspectives. And librarians are on the front lines, fighting every day to make the widest possible range of viewpoints, opinions, and ideas available to everyone.
Today was our 2nd annual Battle of the Books - seriously my favorite day of the year! We had 27 teams compete! I’m so incredibly proud of my 4 teams and oh what a gift it has been to work with them each week as we prepared. #fallingwaterselementary
This story brings to light exactly why we must allow libraries to have such a wide range of books and topics - libraries help us learn about the world and people who have different life experiences than our own. Definitely inspires me as a reader!
For @esquire, I went searching for the secret machine behind @BarackObama's annual lists of book recommendations. As someone who worked in the publishing industry for a decade, what I "uncovered" shocked me.

Battle of the Books focused on Aaron Reynolds’s The Incredibly Dead Pets of Rex Dexter. Students ate animal crackers and wrote obituaries for one of the animals in the story. We loved hearing each other’s hilarious obituaries. #fallingwaterselementary
Our Battle of the Books meeting focused on @MLConklin Every Missing Piece. We had Fluffernutter sandwiches and did a breakout box with clues from the book. #fallingwaterselementary
Tonight my son and I delivered 404 copies of The Wild Robot by @itspeterbrown to classrooms and staff. We start One School One Book on Monday and I can’t wait to share one of my favorites with them! #fallingwaterselementary
I choose a book for each of our classrooms to read for #WorldReadAloudDay So many teachers and students told me they loved the book and it was perfect for their class! Made this media specialist’s day! ❤️📚💙 #fallingwaterselementary
