Books Build Bridges: Using YA Literature to Support SEL in Middle School

Hello again!

We had requests to share our SEL presentation slides, so here they are.  The second presentation is Building a Community of Readers. Please reach out with questions at 2crazyreadingladies@gmail.com.

Also, if you're in the area, we invite you to join us in building a literacy collaborative.  We'd love to collaborate with you on author visits, literacy initiatives, and school visits.  Send us an email and we'll include you in the planning!

We'll be at MassCue today presenting on a wide variety of literacy initiatives.  We'll be in Red 72 at 2:45.  Join us!

Our SEL shopping list

Well hi, there!

We've been talking a lot lately about the super cool SEL libraries we're creating for HMMS thanks to the Franklin Education Foundation and the pinnacle grant we received.  Lots of folks have asked for the books that we ordered, and we figured this was the easiest way to share it.  Happy shopping!
