IMWAYR: PD and Priorities

IMWAYR is a weekly blog hop with kid lit co-hosts Jennifer from Teach Mentor Texts and Kellee and Ricki from Unleashing Readers. The original IMWAYR, with an adult literature focus, was started by Sheila at Book Journeys and is now hosted by Kathryn at The Book Date. It’s a great way to share what you’re reading and get recommendations from others. We encourage you to write your own post sharing what you’re reading, link up, leave a comment, and support other IMWAYR bloggers by visiting and commenting on at least three of the other linked blogs each week.

I’m back to work! This is professional development week before students come next week, and I’m ready! This week my priorities are to finish A Work In Progress by Jarrett Lerner (soooo important! soooo needed!) and get some PD materials reviewed to start the school year. I’m also reviewing our district’s Library Manual to make sure everything is correct and up-to-date for our library staff.

I had a blast today sharing information about independent reading time inside the classroom. Thanks to #SBCSC for the opportunity to present! This is me, reading TRUMAN (Reidy, Cummins) to a group of teachers. It’s one of my favorite picture books to use in the classroom. (Thank you to my friend and colleague, Vicky, for snapping the picture!)

It’s Monday! What are YOU reading?

I write about literacy education and my love for reading and writing. My passion is sharing titles I use for school libraries, classroom collaborations, and professional development. My goal is to collaborate, research, and share with other life-long literacy learners. Welcome to my blog!
