“You don't need a Grand Canyon. You need to look up. Once a day this week, stop for one minute and look at something bigger or older than your to-do list.” — @why-edify.bsky.social

Another great post and new book added to my cart! (And a cool gift too!)

Have you ever heard someone say, “#STEM levels the playing field!”?

I share how I experienced this in my classroom in my newest newsletter.

I also share a FREE lesson slide deck, a nod to @ekuwah, and several amazing, new #InfoFic and #NF #PictureBooks!

I hope all MG cover designers have subscribed to Afoma’s newsletter! Such interesting insight when she posts on first impressions on covers by ACTUAL KIDS!

Thank you so much Abi!

“I think carefully about the goal of the challenge, materials that are accessible to young learners, and how to group students so they can collaborate, communicate, and learn from one another.”
