Y'all. I'm obsessed with making Book Related #Connections Puzzles - like the one I created for Louder Than Hunger by @MrSchuReads! Links to all the puzzles I've created + a FREE planning doc for kids here: librarygirl.net/post/making-…

So I simply cannot wait any longer to show off our students’ Adopt-a-Shelves!!! Some are still in progress, but the ones who have created their mini book displays completely by their own design have knocked it out of the park! Photos of individual shelves in 🧵

Love using shades of meaning to discuss negative and positive connotations for words. The more we understand words, the better we can understand stories!

As someone who rarely reads nonfiction, this book talk has made me excited to read it!

The Mona Lisa Vanishes was one of my favorite 2023 books, and it might be the coolest middle grade nonfiction book I have ever read.

Loved using these 6 word summaries of “A Time to Talk” by Robert Frost. Shrinking down to just 6 words isn’t easy! Thanks for the great idea @MrLewCrew #GrowCelebrateMatter

As part of our 5th grade Binder Checks, we introduced a sticker design contest. One fifth grader was able to see his sticky note design come to life and find a home in his friend’s desks! #StickTogether #BinderCheckUsOut
