REMINDER: I’ve bought just about the ENTIRE inventory of my books in DC. Which means they are FREE at almost all the indie bookstores. All the @PoliticsProse stores, @MahoganyBooks, @Loyaltybooks, @eastcitybooks, @kramerbooks, @SankofaDC, and @solidstatedc.
Today for #GivingTuesday, I am supporting @modernclassproj because it's been a key part of my success teaching through the pandemic. Our goal is to raise $10k to fund scholarships for 20 educators on the Virtual Mentorship waitlist! secure.givelively.org/donate…

When you stumble upon your friend, @eeculp’s exemplar unit for writing during the @modernclassproj Essentials course (hint: it’s free - you should do it). Man, was I lucky to learned with and from her in my first few years in education.
So fun! Let's do it again soon!

Check out this week’s Modern Classrooms Project #TeacherFeature sharing words from Emily Culp, sixth grade English teacher and Modern Classrooms Mentor. ✨
#TeacherFeature "My favorite aspect of teaching with the Modern Classrooms model is that I spend 75% of my time working one-on-one with my sixth graders. This is important for their literacy as students, and it's important for us, as people. We need opportunities for connection and trust-building now, more than ever." - Emily Culp, sixth grade English teacher and Modern Classrooms Mentor
