Thank you to @lisajennbigelow for sharing HAZEL’S THEORY OF EVOLUTION with #collabookation . I highly recommend this book- there is so much REAL LIFE in here. Things that students need to know is happening all around them, even if they don’t realize it yet.

Long way down
The only road.
Speechless resistance,
A good kind of trouble.
Stormy seas,
Drum roll please.
