I am getting ready to order books for our Jr-Sr High Library. One of my students requested Before We Were Yours by Lisa Wingate. I know the book is historical fiction and deals with abuse. Is this too graphic for Young Adult fiction?

What state do you live in? I read today actually that in Florida any media specialist (in school or community) or teacher who has inappropriate (whatever that means) books can face prison time. It's absolutely ridiculous.
Is there someone at your school who can give you the 'all clear'?

We have a large unused professional library that includes a variety of authors, topics, and lots of the scholastic teaching resource books. Most are more than 5 years old, some much older. Some multiple copies of titles that were book studies over the years. No one is using these books and we need the space. I hate to just dump them in a trash bin. After setting them out for people to pick through at school, what can be done with these materials?

I am looking for ideas for a high school intervention class with students reading at PP-4th. I am a brand new teacher and have never taught intervention but we are extremely short staffed. I inherited the class mid-last semester and the former teacher had no framework whatsoever. I'm pulling grade level texts and trying to work on reading fluency and comprehension but don't feel like what I'm doing is effective, and the students are not very engaged. Any great resources I should check out?

I am currently one of two reading teachers at the high school I work in and three in the district, which consists of two high schools. I think I would be more effective, and it would would a) make more of a difference and b) be more enjoyable teaching at a k-6 school. I have an MA in reading K-12 so as long as it’s reading, I can teach at an elementary school. I tutor after school from my house for kids in the younger grades.

I graduated last year with a master’s in reading education. I was looking forward to getting hired as a reading specialist/literacy coach. However, I was just offered a job as a math coach. 🤦🏼‍♀️ I know a lot of reading strategies can be applied in math, but I’m feeling a bit indecisive about accepting the position. Some advice would be helpful. Thanks!
