WHAT?!?!? A sequel?!?! I AM SO EXCITED!!! I don't think I can wait until February though! @kellyyanghk

[Kelly Yang @kellyyanghk]

Are you ready for it??? FINALLY HEARD drops in Feb! 🔥📱📚

When ten-year-old Lina Gao sees her mom’s video on social media take off, she’s captivated by the potential to be seen and heard! Maybe online she can finally find the confidence she craves. Whereas in real life she’s growing so fast, she feels like microwave popcorn, bursting out of her skin!

With the help of her two best friends, Carla and Finn, and her little sister, Millie, Lina sets off to go viral. Except there’s a lot more to social media than Lina ever imagined, like:

1. Seeing inside her classmates’ lives! Is she really the only person on the planet who doesn’t have a walk-in closet?
2. Group chats! Disappearing videos! What is everyone talking about in the secret chats? And how can she join?
3. A bazillion stories about what to eat, wear, and put on her face. Could they all be telling the truth? Everyone sounds so sure of what they’re saying!

As Lina descends deeper and deeper into social media, it will take all her strength to break free from the likes and find the courage to be her authentic self in this fast-paced world.

Out 2/27/24! 🔥 This is the sequel to FINALLY SEEN, but can be read as a stand-alone! Ideally read BEFORE kids get a phone! I learned so much about social media while researching and writing this book and I am so hoping that Lina’s story will lead to much needed convos about our digital health! ❤️ Also, am obsessed w @maike_illu’s beautiful cover! 😍 Preorder now! @simonkids #FinallyHeard #FinallySeen #SocialMedia #Kids

[Ms.DolginMath @MissDMath]

What do you think @AnnePaonessa?

[Ms.DolginMath @MissDMath]

Great high quality math task! May try this in my classroom :)

[Greg Tang @gregtangmath]

Happy Saturday! Here's a fun problem to solve with your A.M. coffee. Great for kids Gr 2 & up. When can we start developing algebraic thinking skills? From the very beginning! Guess & check, visual models, systems of equations, mental math. A proven progression that works! Enjoy!

[Ms.DolginMath @MissDMath]

@gregtangmath 14. I did a system of equations first (2a+b=20;2b+a=22) but then I just tried numbers since most of my students would probably start that way. I knew they had to be even because 2 x # is even and even + even=even so I tried combinations of 2,4,6,8 until I got 20 and 22.

[Ms.DolginMath @MissDMath]

Rocking that register!! SO MUCH FUN!

[Juliet Zabel @Zabeljz]

Another McTastic McTeacher night! Thanks to our @bmsstar_pbis team for a great event! @blackhawk_ms #bms_now

[Perry Finch @perryfinchSD735]
