Always loved starting the year off with identity strips! Kids enjoyed researching the origin and meaning of their names. Also, great at home conversations finding out story behind why their name was chosen. #ELAR #teachertwitter #teacherlife

reading a book is its own form of magic because you start to see how other people have grappled with the same hurts and heartaches and then you don’t feel so alone.
