This past Wednesday, my husband, oldest son, brother, sister-in-law, and good friend all met at the Lyric Theatre in New York City to see Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, all thanks to my cooperating teacher from my days as a student teacher. It was magically extraordinary. I wept during the bows because I didn’t want it to end. If you have a Potterhead in your life, move mountains to see this play. It’s THAT amazing.

Here is this week’s roundup of literacy links for some quick inspiration, tips, and refreshment:

• I’ve entered this every week with no luck yet. I’ll keep trying.
• So excited for this new book!
• Why Audio Books in the Classroom?
• Love this print.
• “What to Look For” and Parent Guides from DESE. Hrmm…
• Mental health break
