First read of 2021 ✅ https://t.co/iUW2EKmyHK

It has been a long day (we welcomed some students back in person) and I am losing steam big time. Glad my mug thinks I'm the "World's Best Taker-over-er"! https://t.co/U1SUhygzCs

Is it too early to be planning for Halloween activities? Asking for me. https://t.co/pxEN1HsxpA

Today's read was wonderful (and I expect nothing less from beckyalbertalli and anyone she writes with). Can't wait to read more from @aishacs once I get through the excitement of back-to-school! https://t.co/GAS3NJE0AE

Apparently I have been living under a rock, but I am STOKED to read Dear Justyce when it comes out this fall. It will have to be added to my classroom library alongside The Hate U Give and Dear Martin.

I, like many other English teachers, love going to Ollie's for books, but I HATE the residue their tags leave. Any advice? https://t.co/4UbXhUAhAq

Fellow educators, please take note: we need to shift our culture to one that values reading for the reading itself, not just the ability to answer questions.

Finished #InfinitySon tonight and while I loved the whole ride, this end of the acknowledgments got to me. Believe in magic and you will find it. ✨ https://t.co/SaZGmFtiZL

How my students see me when I ask them to write in complete sentences or show their work:

These students may fly under the radar because they *sound like* they're doing well when they read aloud.

Convinced a self-proclaimed non-reader to try @writerkmc 's One of Us books today, and I'm calling it a win.

Related: I really need another sequel because those books are phenomenal. 📕

[Harley Patterson @MsHP_English]

@WeAreTeachers No. Partly because I will not see my current students again after break and partly because we ALL deserve this break.

[Harley Patterson @MsHP_English]

My students can blame @Lin_Manuel for one of their first assignments of the semester...

🎶"Remember the story of your name..."

Names are an important part of our identities. It's important that our students know we value theirs.

Your work as an educator can’t be effectively quantified.

Not by test scores.

Not by evaluation ratings.

Not by value added measures.

Education is a human endeavor and your value is more than a number.

What you do matters.

You go above and beyond every day for kids.
