It’s Saturday. Time to celebrate the week with others at Ruth Ayres Writes.
ONE
Students returned to school this week. Everyone has the spirit and promise of a new year. I love seeing that in not only the students but the parents and staff.
TWO
Students love reading and they want to know you are a reader.
Two comments from students (one actually a sigh)…in answer the question of “what’s your favorite part of the library?” The answer was “I’m surrounded by books.”
The other was a sigh when I answered the question to “did you read more than ten books this summer?” I said no ( I read nine both kid and adult books). I rechecked my list after class and discovered I actually read ten books. So I plan to share my list.
THREE
Am reading Reading in the Wild by Donalynn Miller (was the PD online book for the summer which with shoulder surgery I missed). I. Love. It. So needed this inspiration.
Als reading Countdown by Deborah Wiles. Incredible.
FOUR
Meeting with three other writers through Google Chat on my writing this week. Such a great way to connect.
FIVE
Signs of fall sneaking in:
What are you celebrating?
