Sharing something I‘ve found helpful, maybe it‘ll help you too. 🤗 After a week of reading I‘ve found it hard to remember what I wanted to mention in our #WeeklyWrapUp discussions, and even more so in our monthly #Zoom calls… then I started using these sticky notes from The Daily Grace Co ($5 on sale!) and they‘ve helped a ton! 🙌🏻

BarbaraBB Definitely fits the prompt. Looking forward to what you‘ll think. I was a bit underwhelmed but there‘s much Litsy love for it! 2y
Suet624 @BarbaraBB this was a book that I bailed on which I rarely do. Glad to hear your thoughts on it. 2y
BarbaraBB @Suet624 You hardly bail indeed. I must get bank to your review to see why. But I wasn‘t a fan either. 2y
Suet624 @BarbaraBB I listened to it which is never a good idea for me. Fiction just doesn‘t translate well. But it seemed too predictable. 2y

Anyone else taking virtual classes with #zoom ? Professors love to use breakout rooms...and here‘s what it looks like when the other person in your #breakoutroom has skipped out of class early. Yep, that‘s me, in a stimulating conversation about the class topic with....me 😂😂😂🤦‍♀️

Fleishman Is in Trouble: A Novel | Taffy Brodesser-Akner
post image
Pickpick

This shines a light into the darkness of dysfunctional marriage and divorce. Brodesser-Akner captures the feelings and realities of shared parenting gone horribly wrong. She develops Fleishman from a horny divorced dude with kids to a full-time dad conflicted about love, sex, and kids. Sometimes I grimaced, others I laughed. And occasionally I thought the author was quite wise.

Good Morning Zoom | Lindsay Rechler

Look what came across my desk this morning! It‘s not exactly quality literature, but it‘s a sign of the times & fun to read. I shared it with my college-age son, who lives on campus. He pointed out that Mom forgot to put on a mask to receive her grocery delivery! Oh, no! Still, this will top my Christmas list for co-workers.

Some of the folks who joined in on today‘s monthly meeting of the #2030SomethingBookClub 😁👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻! We‘ve been conducting #Zoom meetings since March, and hopefully we can have our first in-person meeting in August, which‘ll be in Central Park. This was an interesting meeting. This book had most of the members really disliking it, but by the end of the meeting, most had changed their minds to liking it. 🙂

Valink That‘s how I felt at the beginning vs the end of the book! 4y
MrBook @Valink , I stayed middle-ground throughout. I was frustrated with most of the characters and...I don‘t want to spoil alert 😆. 4y

Today, we had our first virtual Nashville Litsy Meetup. It did my head 🧠 and heart 💚 good to see these phenomenal ladies. Feel very fortunate to have forged friendships over our mutual love of books! And Eurovision, Jason Bateman, etc. 😂 Missed those who couldn‘t make and hope to see you next time! #nashvillemeetup #nashvillelittens #zoom #covidmeetup #litsymeetup

britt_brooke @corycatelyn Have you met any PA folks on here yet? I think they do in-person meetups like we normally do, but maybe they‘re doing something virtual, too? @MicheleinPhilly You are the first person who came to mind. Hope you don‘t mind the tag. 💚 4y
corycatelyn @britt_brooke I have met a few...there was an in-person meetup last year that I couldn't go to...hopefully we can do a virtual one soon 😊 4y
HeatherBookNerd @britt_brooke a good time was had by all! 4y

#UCFLae3414F17 Six Dots is a biography, written by Jen Bryant. It tells the story of Louis Braille a young boy who lost his sight, but not his yearning to read and write. The story explains how hard it was for Louis to read and how they had to redefine the Braille system many times before he perfected it. It is a great read that incorporates English, French, and Braille and will definitely inspire your students.
I would use ESOL strategies 6 & 12.

JordanHull This book has valuable content but also will help foster their vocabulary growth. Continuous monitoring will help ensure they are understanding both the content and the language. I would use UDL strategy 3.3 and provide words and sentences in braille that the students could decode using the knowledge obtained in the text. Manipulating the materials physically while reading them will help deepen understanding. 6y

The story would be great for GR, PR, and IR. The link above goes to the authors page and provides guiding questions, clarifying vocabulary, and more.
