@skesliencharles Thank you for writing, The Paris Library. Tomorrow evening, our P.E.O. Book club is excited to be discussing your book and can't wait for you to publish your next one! Several of our members are librarians who were very happy to learn that books were sent to soldiers during WWII.
For those using @Seesaw as your main tool for #distancelearning: Here are a few resources we put together for teachers. Workflow in Seesaw: https://t.co/f2necYzoXp Attendance in Seesaw: https://t.co/vUQ3eMnBgB Support Doc: https://t.co/UrpJ9B2kP8
What is priceless? Having our principal, Mr. Bledsoe read The Polar Express to each grade level while eating cookies served by our vice principal Ms. Hobizal. What a nice way to start new tradition!

3rd graders had an amazing hangout in Svalbard, Norway with Scientists Sinnia & Hildegard. Frozen tundra home to Polar bears, penguins,etc. See that Walrus on the ice? That ice is not there anymore due to climate change. Poor walrus! @EBTSOYP@NISDThornton#ExploringBytheSeat

In the workplace, academic skills won't matter if social skills are lacking.
Social skills need to be part of college and career readiness, not treated as an add on or separate thing.

A principal recently told me that some parents don't want their kids "just reading" while at school. He asked what research he could share to show those parents that "just reading" has ACADEMIC benefits. Here it the chart I shared. #DisruptingThinking
