SOTAREADING 2021-2024

From Nija, (Thank you, Nija, for leading this PD Collegial Circle throughout the year and to all the facilitators of meetings!  Great book choices and presentations this year.) Hi All, We had a great discussion on Monday with author Trista Wilson.  Thank you for arranging this, Meagan.  Our two final meetings are Monday, May 17th and Monday, May 24th.  May 17th we will discuss our summer reads and possible books for next year.  On May 24th we will discuss our final book of the year,  Long Way Down  by Jason Reynolds. The reason we are meeting twice in May is because we must submit final attendance for our PD by June 4th.  Please blog by tomorrow if you missed Monday's meeting. I will submit attendance for the meeting on Friday. 

 From Nija: Hello All, We will be discussing  Sometimes Brave  by Trista Wilson.  Trista will join us for our conversation. Meagan Harris is the facilitator for this meeting.  Our May read is  Long Way Down  by Jason Reynolds.  Sometimes Brave by  Trista Wilso n Monday, April 26, 2021 Facilitator:  Meaghan Harris TimeL 3:30 Ten-year-old Hazel has always had an amazing imagination--a little  too  amazing her dad sometimes says--but even she can't pretend away the fact that her family has just become homeless, her best friend Jilly isn't speaking to her, and a tornado is on the way. Through friendship, family and the love of a sweet old dog, Hazel will discover there are many different kinds of brave.
