Once a year I click refresh on https://t.co/lIYasEnNou a million times a day in anticipation of @MrSchuReads and @colbysharp's #MockCaldecott list! Today is that day.
Bravo, California, Bravo! @DoctorSam7, "There are some critics of the folks who question the rush to SoR currently sweeping the nation, saying those that oppose it are ignoring/denying the research. I respectfully disagree with them."
Me too.

This is largely excruciating nonsense. Children need calm, safe environments where the expectations are clear, scaffolded, and taught; where boundaries are upheld and consequences happen when they are breached-with support when required. Treating misbehaviour as a pathology, or children as China dolls, actually makes them less safe, more vulnerable.
@artandwriting please respond to my copious emails and phone messages regarding the Scholastic Writing Contest in New Hampshire! Our beloved @megjoanna passed away and we need to transfer the account as the contest is already open this year. https://t.co/0GL9vhC38A
