Y’all know how much I love the Fountas and Pinnell Literacy Continuum! If my office was on fire, this would be the first professional resource I’d rescue. So much support to make my teaching as responsive and strategic as possible. I have big plans to encourage the use of this book, so we just got SIX copies of our very own in the book room so that you don’t have to fork over $75. Come check one out today!

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

• Powerful reminder in this article.
• The Power of Threes
• Great list for celebrating Indigenous People Day in lieu of Christopher Columbus Day.
• Interview with the author I’m going to see this weekend – his latest publication was just shortlisted for the National Book Award for Children’s Literature!
• MRA (Massachusetts Reading Association) is hosting a virtual book club for teachers with a book that has been on my Books to Read list for a while.
• Mental health break
