August’s reads 📚

What a fun read!

A sweet reminder that family and friendship can transcend species 💜 @netgalley.bsky.social

The first class novel I read with my sixth graders is @kaaauthor.bsky.social’s WISHTREE. I can’t wait to recommend this as a follow up @netgalley.bsky.social

A July well spent 📚

I loved The Trouble with Heroes!

Book cover for Dusti Bowling’s “Holding on for Dear Life,” which features a teenage boy riding a bull.

Without a doubt my favorite book of the summer so far 💛😭 @netgalley.bsky.social

Can’t wait for season 2! 💚

I love the History Smashers series! The Titanic one is definitely popular with my readers

The First State of Being

"Living 'in the moment' has always been difficult for me too. That’s one of the reasons I wrote the book. To teach myself how. —Newbery Medalist @erinentrada.bsky.social www.hbook.com/story/2025-n...

Four book covers: Disappearance at Devil’s Rock, The Titan’s Curse, The First State of Being, and All the Sinners Bleed

June’s reads 📖

Wasn’t until I got home from the library book sale that I realized my name was already stamped on one of the books I bought… I love that my students are donating books to the town library. I just wish it wasn’t my classroom library books 😐

My students loved it! Knew I’d have to read it next 😊

Connect with your library. National Library Week. Plug-in, login, visit, support.

It's National Library Week. Now more than ever, libraries are important.

Students are also taking notes on heroes as they read so they can write an argument about that hero when they’re done (the Salem Witch Trial book clubs will write about a villain!)

Right now students are working on summarizing and identifying text structures. Later this week we’ll use Absolute and Extreme Language to analyze headlines related to each topic!

Nonfiction book clubs?? Yes, please!!
