Loving these new business cards from Moo where I customized the back of the card on each one with Free to Use and Reuse images from the Library of Congress. ♥️

I’m not saying this bread gifted by a second grade student wouldn’t have happened without our extensive cooking and baking book section, but I sure don’t think it hurt. 😋 🍞

I love when a library lesson works with the classroom curriculum so well that teachers ask for it again the next year! We started in that lesson today. 🙂

Our building does a staff breakfast most Fridays. Today, me and a few of my colleagues hosted. We had fruit and casseroles and I broke out my favorite pancake recipe to make a trio of options for the staff.

We’re in the midst of Nonfiction November and before we delve into @mstewartscience ‘s 5 Kinds of Nonfiction, we’re grounding ourselves in a better understanding between the difference in Narrative and Expository NF text. Talking with Ss about there observations here.

This morning, students and staff celebrated our Blue Ribbon School recognition. Great planning to recognize the achievement and help every student feel a part of this special community! 🙂

Back at work yesterday and a favorite moment was these two Ss talking each other jokes. And I’m pretty sure neither understood any of the jokes. 😂😂 But they sure loved sharing them and in that moment, that was what was important.

That’s a wrap. After a Keynote for VAASL that I’m really proud of, I also had an incredible experience in UAE presenting, sharing, and learning at my first international conference. Not pictured: a session co-presented with @Andrea_Trudeau that we want to share in the states!
