TY. During #NationalBookMonth—and all year long—it’s essential for educators to connect, share titles, and discuss the thoughtful, responsive teaching practices that come with using #BooksAsCoTeachers. We appreciate you sharing our #SeasonsOfLiteracy tool.
I love sharing titles with my students! @joellenmccarthy.bsky.social & Julia Torres recommend books in Seasons of Literacy. October is an interesting month for the school library: Hispanic Heritage Month, Halloween, Day of the Dead, Banned Books Week…#LibrariesTransform #ReadingTeacherWrites
Thank you for tuning in to our #BookBuzz! I am so happy to know your library had so many of our recs! I have no doubt you will be spreading the 📘♥️. I am excited to hear your thoughts and those of your teachers. Keep us posted. @jessicawalshedu.bsky.social
Loving the beautiful examples celebrating the power of picture books and visual literacy in Migrants by Issa Watanabe- a Wordless picture book and in the GN: Shakti by SJ Sindu. @tanisleads.bsky.social 📘♥️#TheEdCollabGathering

This article is a great read/share that can inspire reflection throughout the year. I appreciate the connection to the power of read-alouds. “Prioritize books, libraries, and stories. Stories promote positive and joyful learning.” Regie Routman spr.ly/6014ABpa0
I'm jumping back onto all my SM platforms to reconnect with educators, librarians, kidlit creators & everyone out there championing kids, read-alouds, and the joy of reading! 🎉 I’ve also launched a BookTok account under the same name—come find me! Always open to tips, tricks, and friendly faces. 😊
#ReadAlouds and #BackToSchool Shelfies via @theedcollab.bsky.social#TheEdCollab. @jessicawalshedu.bsky.social and I are sharing *Books that* invite conversations around identity, creativity, agency & activism. What’s on your shelves?
Teachers and admin, if you've got a question—big or small—we now have a place where you can hash it with your peers. Someone else has had that same question and can share what they figured out. You've got the wisdom of a crowd here!
Great @ChoiceLiteracy article re #Mindset. “Just gives me an idea of what’s next in a way that isn’t overwhelming but rather is a lower-stakes approach to progressing step-by-step.” @bitsyparks.bsky.socialchoiceliteracy.com/article/august…
