I walked into my coworkers room, and she had one of the best writing prompts I've ever seen (she has a gift for that sort of thing). It read: write the wildest way to get fired from a Dairy Queen (school appropriate). Before they wrote, she shared stories of hers #creativewriting

Activity: Listen to your fave song! Curiosities: How do your ears feel? I wonder if you notice sensations anywhere else in your body. ------ Image Description: 2 blue tiles with the activity from the caption written on it #Interoception #Activities #OccupationalTherapy

I found this from @AdvocateAvery to use in classes for resets or just general mindfulness. Love finding cool resources from other teachers.

Still slowly making my way through Proust and the Squid. This book is amazing for the simplicity that the language puts things that I took for granted. Below is another great example. I am loving all there is to take in with this book.

Learning about verbal charades from #WordsWork by #ThomasCarnicelli for my ELA classroom. I want to try new things with my vocab instruction, and this is a neat idea I found!

Perhaps a bot risqué with the cursing, but I like the irreverent way that Neon Yang begins their fourth book in the Tensorate series. I think this would make an attention grabbing mentor text, and give students a view of 2nd person narration, which isn't super common #mentortext

I love this quote from Bone Gap by Laura Ruby. It's whimsical and silly, and would go well with a lesson about characterization. #mentortext #elateach

I have been playing a lot of Balder's Gate 3 and I am super inspired by the free exploration in the game... I have been considering ways of incorporating choose your own adventure stories in a 9-10 ELA in the classroom. Does anyone have stories or suggestions? #ELA #teacher

#Reading #LightfromUncommonStars by #RykaAoki and really enjoying the feeling of the authenticity with #LGBTQ+ experience. The main character is trans and her finding acceptance from the main character is cute really sweet.
