I’ve accepted the challenge from @peterson2teachU to post covers of 7 books I LOVE for a week. Promise this is my last for a while! I grew up going to NW Wisconsin every summer--this story is so well-told and heartfelt about a family cabin near Hayward. I felt like I was there!
CHANGED MY TEACHING LIFE & HOW I LOOK AT ALL THINGS LITERACY!
OVERDUE LIBRARY BOOKS! My scholars' notices that I will gladly pass out...because they are reading and keeping our school library in business--THRIVING! #libraryvalentines
Not actually advocating for this book specifically BUT inspired a self-proclaimed non-reader soph to say, "This book made me cry at the end...a book has never done that to me." She loved it! Why we advocate for student choice--what I chose never moved her. #SecondaryRead INSPIRE
I’ve accepted the challenge from @peterson2teachU to post covers of 7 books I LOVE for a week. My Day 11 (only 1 more) is a fantastic book for teaching writing--so practical. Written by profs at Moraine Valley CC in IL!
I’ve accepted the challenge from @peterson2teachU to post covers of 7 books I LOVE for a week. My Day 10 (long week) was my Game Changer. @donalynbooks inspired me to change EVERYTHING I do 3 years ago, pursue my doctorate, and gift this book to many! Pre-service teacher manual!
I’ve accepted the challenge from @peterson2teachU to post covers of 7 books I LOVE. 1 cover a day for a week. My Day 9 (CAN'T STOP) is one of my top 3 PD FAVES @pennykittle @KellyGToGo that has helped me evolve into the hs English teacher I want to be! Thank you, Penny & Kelly!
I AM THERE. TAKING MY 2 BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTERS. Great opportunity for high school English teachers to hear a brilliant author who SPEAKS to our audience. Come with me @SecondaryRead
I’ve accepted the challenge from @peterson2teachU to post covers of 7 books I LOVE: no explanations, no review, just the cover. Each time I post a cover, I’ll ask someone else to take up the challenge--1 cover a day for a week. My Day 8 (DAY 8?) nomination goes to @LevineWrites
TALE OF 2 CLASSROOMS! First pic is old school traditional hs class. The 2nd is THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT! Here is my visual dissertation proposal...hope it looks better in writing. LOOKS BEST IN THE CLASSROOM!
Beautiful Moment: I noticed this book returned to my classroom library; I asked a student how it was--said he didn't finish & then he held up a copy he bought so he could write in it. Said he can't help writing in books since he started in my class. So Proud! MARGINALIA!
I’ve accepted the challenge from @peterson2teachU to post covers of 7 books I LOVE: no explanations, no review, just the cover. Each time I post a cover, I’ll ask someone else to take up the challenge--1 cover a day for a week. My Day 7 (FINAL?) nomination goes to @halseanderson

AMEN. @pennykittle gets it!!! How lucky are her students? Let's make more students this lucky and model her practices in the classroom. If you have not read 180 Days yet, you're about 315 days behind! INSPIRING!
