My students asked me to buy them books for the summer so they could keep reading. I told them to convince @Davidaltizer9. Guess what?? They convinced him!! When reading is life❤️📚!!@ProjectLITComm @Emily_Stains413
Weekend giveaway! RT and reply with your favorite book(s) from this #ProjectLITBookClub stack, and we’ll pick three winners on Monday. Happy reading! 📚❤️
Sometimes when history unfolds, it immediately supersedes tomorrow’s lesson plan. Today is one of those days. Students will need to read, write, and talk about this.
Hey, teacher friends! @MrAdamRex & I are teaming up for a tag-team read-aloud of THE NEXT PRESIDENT (and we're adding an update for 2020!) We'll have it uploaded in time for you to share with your kids when they go back to school tomorrow.
@LRGiles Feeling this. Hard to accept that I’m now the mom who will be happy to learn level 1, but feeling even more attacked that my kid’s 6 has the update but my 8 doesn’t. Harsh.
Hello Twitter Family, I am in need of more readers for our #GlobalReadAloud@ProjectLITComm Stamped: Racism, Antiracism and You event! We are pulling together readers from across the country-maybe even the globe. DM me or comment if interested.
@t_magnan @ilana_horn @__itsniaj You can have an announcement or link on your homepage with an explanation that the link will go “live” at a certain time. Canvas Conferences are great, but with the limit, a backup google meet is a safe bet, just in case you run into a problem. Check with your ID for ideas.
@t_magnan @ilana_horn @__itsniaj Tracy, you can set up your Google Meet as an assignment in Canvas and keep students from entering the Meet without you by only publishing the assignment when you’re ready to begin. LMK if you need the directions. Love and miss you, girl!
@pernilleripp@DrKMetropoulos @smbeaverson I feel your stress and worry. As a widow raising my 10 year-old alone, hiring someone to watch my little one on the days she’s home while I’m at school is not something I can afford, but going without my income for even a couple of months is just not an option for me. 😞
