@mwreads Getting ready for fall semester at UB and writing curricula for teaching research/media lit to grades 6-8 that I was just told about yesterday.
@mwreads A4: encourage and let them be heard. I think they feel ignored or marginalized in most aspects of school and need a place where they feel heard and appreciated. Let them make decisions for the library or programming. #ublis535
@mwreads@waddsreads Yes! The same with #ownvoices novels about diverse race and ethnicity students. Not every book has to teach a lesson or moral about being diverse, it can just a great novel from another perspective.
@thefablibrarian@mwreads I just spent the day in Rochester! Rainy day means Museum of Play. I LOVE that there is a lending library throughout the museum!
Happy #bookbirthday to #HeyKiddo, @StudioJJK's profoundly important memoir about growing up in a family grappling with addiction, and finding the art that helps you survive. 💙🧡
