Oliver Jeffers is one of my favorite authors. He’s even more special because he’s also the illustrator of his and others’ books. He does an illustration every New Year’s Eve, and I love 2020‘s! Here’s to the journey!
Here is this week’s roundup of literacy links for some quick inspiration, tips, and refreshment:
- Brightly’s “Favorite Books of the Decade”
- “WRITE START Challenge: 20 Writing Sparks to Start 2020 Right” from 826 Digital
- Book trailers for some of Josh Funk’s books on his site – perfect for primary book talks when you’re in a pinch!
- I love this bucket list, and I can see using it with students (and including a lesson on verbs with it!).
- This reflection from Playful Learning would be great to do with students.
- “20 Ways to Read More Books in 2020” from Book Riot – solid tips to build strong reading habits!
- The Nerdies from Donalynn Miller and Mr. Schu are always reliable, and they just announced the 2019 winners. Go through the list with a reader :
