Powerful Revision Partners are my absolute FAVORITE. These authors showed up for their partners, are engaged, and understand the value to holding each other accountable. Love hearing their suggestions!! @Costello_Tweets
Readers IMMERSING themselves with their partners in our new genre of Nonfiction- why might the author have chosen to have that text feature? @Costello_Tweets
Got to live our my childhood dream of working at an ice cream shop, supporting @Costello_Tweets tonight! Let me tell you, that is NOT as easy as it looks!! So great seeing so many cardinals tonight!
What an AMAZING event this morning, celebrating reading, our @Costello_Tweets , buddies and breakfast! Thank you Costello PTO and families for your generous book donation!
Celebration of books! Thank you Costello parents and PTO for your donations to our fundraisers. YOU made it possible for our classrooms to have these new books!! Thank you @MrsEnglebert and parent helpers for hosting the breakfast today!
The value of reading, and of writing things down that we read, or hear, cannot be overstated. Two expert guests (who specialize in speech and memory) on the Huberman Lab podcast explained that when we read text or listen to something and then write key aspects/takeaways down by hand- not typing, it engages our motor control centers in ways that deeply embed that information to our memory. Taking notes, however cursory, turns out to be the best way to remember and implement information later.
