I filled a 4th grade position that was still vacant when school began last year. I fell in love. Now I’m looping to 5th grade with my loves while also paying for another degree. We need books for our classroom library! Thank you for helping us. ❤️, Ms. Aeriale’s Readers www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...

I’m a Christian and I don’t think this is okay. I am so sorry!

Something about going to NCTE this year did not sit right with me. After I made the decision, I wondered if I would experience FOMO. Not once! Now I know how miserable I would have been.

Thankful to have had the opportunity to feature children’s books that center Blackness by Black authors in the most recent issue of NCTE’s Language Arts. . . 📚🖤

some people claim to be invested in community but really they just want a clique. there’s a difference and I wish we spent more time teasing that out in our organizing.

I left the bird app a long, long time ago in the middle of a personal crisis. Just here to say cancer didn’t win; I did. I moved back to Utqiagvik, Alaska, where I am working as an instructional specialist. I’ll give this app a try. Missed you all.
