These 3rd grade students in SJBP were all reading and annotating this social studies source to discover what culture is. Love the literacy practices! #readingrevival @ShannaBeber Holly Manson Phaedra Bell Early Lisa Holliday LeBoeuf, Ed.D. @sarahstohlman

Session 3 is happening today at 3:30!! I am covering how to do the foundational code skills inventory today. If you have students in grades 3-12 who are below reading level and want some support and ideas, hop on!!

Everyone needs to watch this. What a powerfully true analysis of the modern teaching profession. youtu.be/l7lOPvdARnk

Some of our youngest students showed improvement on the Fall 2022 Reading Report. Louisiana’s overall score improved & students in grades 1-3 grew for the second consecutive year. This year’s 3rd graders earned their highest score since 2018. #LaEd ow.ly/z1bq50LRKXS

Wrapping up final week of first semester as professor Reach University, I’ve grown attached to these grown adults of all ages (youngest 18, oldest 64). Relationships matter, and I’m so thankful for this incredible opportunity to facilitate part of their journey. #AlwaysLearning

I made the decision to join a #selfcare group for busy moms to hold myself accountable for my own #wellbeing. Our January challenge is #Mindset, and I chose to adopt a #mantra to adjust my focus daily.

Yesterday felt like a whole week but excited to be back teaching courses Reach University, including the debut of our literacy content and methods courses developed by yours truly and @sarahstohlman. 🤩👩‍💻📚 #TeachersInTraining #LockedAndLoadedDown #TheFutureLooksBright #DreamJob2

Excited to hang out with some of my favorite humans at the Educators Rising Louisiana Conference! 🍀 Present with the @GregariousMrO, meet Dr. Weems from my dissertation committee, and catch up with @2018LATOY! #educatorsrising #thefutureisgolden #edrisingla #relationshipsmatter

Even though it feels like winter this week, there’s signs of spring in the country…a very handsome bluebird who’s been stalking me to make sure his babies’ nest is safe from the big white dog (I assured him it is, and he seemed satisfied) and blueberries on the bush. 🐦 🪺 🫐

I spent the day with myself WiFi hopping around Covington, working, eating, getting a new haircut, and enjoying the beautiful day. 💇🏼‍♀️ 🥓🍇🥪💻

Ready to #ReachNewHeights with a new semester full of fresh faces, unique opportunities, and learning experiences together with my candidates! #MomByDay #ProfessorByNight #LifelongLearner #LiteracyAndJusticeForAll

enjoyed sharing and learning with Louisiana literacy leaders at the Louisiana School Supervisors’ Association Annual Conference today! Louisiana is making noticeable strides in the right direction. We are in good hands! #literacy #leadership #alwayslearning #LSSA2023

The Little Rock The Right To Read viewing was an incredible event! I was honored to represent Reach University’s literacy program and got to pose with some amazing people including Kymyona Burk, Ed.D. Jermall Wright LeVar Burton teacher LeAndra Grant & film director Jenny McKenzie

Meeting and chatting with Kareem J. Weaver at The Right To Read viewing at the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff was the cherry on top of my literacy sundae. It’s always energizing to share ideas with fellow advocates and educators. Reach University

Julie from Vermont NEA was my volunteer buddy for the Learning Forward Welcome Reception! #LearnFwd23 #Networking #FollowTheYellowBrickAprons

Powerful quotes from today’s keynote by Dr. Christopher Emdin at Learning Forward: Teaching without love is just talking. Clear the space to prepare the place. Who told you that rigor is rigor mortis? Silence for an expressive people is violence. #learnfwd23
