#AASL25 was a blast! It always renews me as a librarian. Seeing national friends, going to fabulous sessions, and having amazing keynotes really raises the PD bar for me. Oh, and @mamagilbs.bsky.social and I presented two well-received sessions, too! Feeling like a rockstar heading home. 🥰
#AASL25 was over too fast! So many new ideas and great connections with the library community from all over the country. Do I really have to go back to the real world? 😫
"I'm just trying to be honest about me and about us, so that maybe someone can feel a little more free." - @jasonreynolds83.bsky.social at #AASL25
"That troublemaker kid in class--that's your leader. You have to pour into every kid." - @jasonreynolds83.bsky.social at #AASL25

Thank you, sir, for helping highlight those kids who too often are pressed into the shadows.
"Writing is play. It is my playground, and more kids might write if we treated it that way." - @jasonreynolds83.bsky.social at #AASL25 👏🏻👏🏻Preach!
"I want to know who you are when no one is looking." - @jasonreynolds83.bsky.social at #AASL25

Yes! Show me your true self. Let's make it safe to be vulnerable and weird with each other.

A student told me today that their friends call me their fairy gay-mother. 🥹 Best title ever. Excuse me while I go add that to my LinkedIn...

My students and I adore Nick Brooks! PROMISE BOYS has spent the last 2 years perpetually checked out. My teens eat it up! 📚
This pretty much sums up my philosophy of education, especially on this first-day eve.

I was chosen as a KQ blogger this year! I've been wanting to for a long time, and I'm excited to be doing it alongside @rgrov1013.bsky.social. I can't wait to see what we each put out into the world.

Here is my debut blog. Enjoy reading about becoming a learner again! 😁 #TLSky #Skybrarians
