And here it is...our very last Q of this bookchat. Q6 #mechskdi

[Randi Sagona, EdD @randisagona]

@drakelets I tend to spend some time after the chat is over to read back through everything--there is invariably at least a few things I either missed entirely or didn't fully process.

[Randi Sagona, EdD @randisagona]

It has been such a pleasure, folks. Thank you for participating and for your dedication to both your day school AND your MECHS kids. They are blessed to have you. Keep moving mountains. #mechskdi

[Randi Sagona, EdD @randisagona]

@drakelets There is truly such a robust professional learning network on Twitter--I loved it as a day school principal!

[Randi Sagona, EdD @randisagona]

@rhonda569 It's amazing how fast the hour goes, isn't it?!?

[Randi Sagona, EdD @randisagona]

@suzanne_jarrard @rhonda569 @rhonda569 was with me when I first decided to attempt PL this way. She's the greatest!!!

[Randi Sagona, EdD @randisagona]

@cisjohns Positive calls to MECHS parents is such a joy! So many of them have NEVER had anything like that

[Randi Sagona, EdD @randisagona]

@drakelets You and me both!

Q5 #mechskdi

[Randi Sagona, EdD @randisagona]

@suzanne_jarrard Ha! You beat me to Q6. I LOVE bookchats--it's good to start with a co-host, so let me know if you need a partner. My day school staff LOVED it as an optional PL over the summer--T-shirts for participation!

A5: The one thing I really want to focus on is being more present and less distracted by my email inbox during the evenings I am working #mechskdi

[Randi Sagona, EdD @randisagona]

@suzanne_jarrard I love this so much--the title always does take you right back to why we got into this business, right?

[Randi Sagona, EdD @randisagona]

@MarcieH81118418 Great way to practice what you preach, and it helps build relationships if kids know you care enough to learn about what they're interested in.

[Randi Sagona, EdD @randisagona]

A4: I try to learn what the kids interests/hobbies are and try to link it to something that they might be interested in reading, even if it's a magazine, website, etc. Or I tell them I'm going to read up on it so we can have a conversation, and then follow up #mechskdi

[Randi Sagona, EdD @randisagona]

@rhonda569 Any reading is good reading, right?!

[Randi Sagona, EdD @randisagona]

@suzanne_jarrard I've had the same thought, but would need to clear out a shelf in the admin office and just haven't gotten around to that. Next year?!

[Randi Sagona, EdD @randisagona]

@cisjohns smart on so many levels--decreases screen time, plus cell phones in bathrooms is just kind of gross.

[Randi Sagona, EdD @randisagona]

@drakelets Bathroom stall news is a genius idea!

[Randi Sagona, EdD @randisagona]

Q4--totally shifting gears from tech to literacy #mechskdi

[Randi Sagona, EdD @randisagona]

A4: So sorry about the poor editing on this Q! #mechskdi
