Book tasting....google it! A great way to expose kids To new books! Also - make sure they’re doing lots of talking about what they are reading and get creative - they can’t act out what they read, partner read, etc!

Question - if J2 runs a BC for J1 and Finds out I am still employed isn’t that a red flag?

Did anyone else adopt the new Florida Wonders curriculum? We just adopted it this school year, and I teach 4th grade. My team and I have not found a good flow, schedule, or whatever you want to call it. We feel like it teaches too many skills in one lesson, and we are not able to truly teach anything “deep” enough for students to master. Does anyone have any insight? What do you do? Do you like the curriculum? Why or why not? Would you be willing to share what you do weekly/daily? Thanks!
