I’ve been quiet for a bit but people! Let me tell you- I had the privilege of a fantastic session today that kicked off a series in my district on “The Power of the Bilingual Reading Brain” with @TajuLearning

@NFLGameDay where has this narrator been?!? @nflnetwork keep him!

@SierraBlackwe16 Do you understand that a relationship is simply forming a connection through multiple encounters? All kids should decide what they share but connection and relationship happen at varying degrees based on encounters. The depth is what we shouldn’t force

Thank you @ReadtoGrowCT for 13 boxes of books that’s guaranteed every student takes 1 or books home before winter break!

Kicking off Summer Reading with our Beach Read-In and book giveaway! Special thanks to @NewHavenReads, @ReadtoGrowCT, our school’s PTO, and countless other donations for helping us send kids home with lots of books!

@pernilleripp I asked teachers for book club titles. Most excited to add Harbor Me, Maribel..., Cleo Porter..., and Restart just flew off the shelf!

LEADERS! Saying 20-21 was a LOST YEAR devalues the INCREDIBLE WORK of staff, students, parents, & communities. We LEARN BY DOING. We learn more by REFLECTING ON WHAT WE’VE DONE. What lessons will you take?

Remote learning in action at Mauro-Sheridan! https://t.co/I2J3xPkgC2 This year has so many challenges, but our kids have super engaged in this process!!

[Caroline Apgar @MsCApgar]

One of the best parts of being a Literacy Teacher/ Instructional Coach is getting to read new books and it counts as work! So excited to bring @JBurtBooks’s Greetings from Witness Protection! to our 5th graders for read alouds!

One of the biggest struggles from spring distance learning was being without the Readers’/ Writers’ Notebook. I ended up with about a million individual Google Docs. What are the tips and tricks to creating and effective digital notebook?? #remotelearning

[Caroline Apgar @MsCApgar]

Taking a break from summer reading to engage in some professional learning with @LINC_PD Thinking of ways to bring some of the best practices of blended learning to whatever crazy format school takes in the fall

[Caroline Apgar @MsCApgar]

In search of a whole-class novel to kick off the year and bring a sense of community back to our 8th graders....think I found it in Between the Lines by @nikkigrimes9 #apgarsrecs #summerreading #mashreadersandleaders

[Caroline Apgar @MsCApgar]

As this crazy year wraps up, and I enter a summer without grad school, I am excited to have some space for choice reading. And this beautiful book was a great first read, and my brain is spinning with ways to share with students! #mashreadersandleaders #apgarsrecs #summerreading
