As a librarian, English teacher, and avid reader I believe that literature has the power to change people. That's why it's important that we immerse ourselves in diverse stories and help young people do the same. Seeing from a character's POV who is different from me is powerful.

My motto? Friendships formed prevents harm. An icon rhymed it better: “Learn 2 C me as a brother instead of 2 distant strangers” (Tupac).

Today, we’ve had to make another tough choice. Together with Superintendent Johnson and Chairman Davis, we have decided to continue remote learning for the rest of this school year for our K-12 public schools. School classrooms may be closed, but the learning is not over.

We're going stir crazy without our students at HGS! So much fun creating a bitmoji scene and google form for students to check their answers. #HGSChat #mybest

Another author sharing her own work! HGS teachers if you want to do a book study with your students use these excellent opportunities to hear from real authors and supplement as you'd like. This is the kind of digital assignment I would want as a kid! #HGSChat

Teachers, parents, students: I've decided to start a daily read-aloud of WONDER! Still figuring out platform, to be announced next week, but I was thinking at 12pm every weekday: I'll read a few chapters and add a little commentary. Stay tuned for details. #WONDERreadaloud

[Corrie Kemp @MrsKemp_MLS]

@thekimrunner @RJPalacio I had the same reaction! 😆

[Corrie Kemp @MrsKemp_MLS]

Hey teachers, this is a great point. We've been out of school 1 week and our priority right now really doesn't need to be content & instruction. Let's all take a deep breath and slow down so that we don't overwhelm our kids & parents.

[Alice Keeler @alicekeeler]

Knowing how to teach online is not a natural skill. THANK YOU for trying. STOP trying to pick up where you left off and trying to move forward. Unless you've been heavily blended already, just start with logging in and saying hi. Relax. We are in this together.
