I was part of a beautiful project to support Palestinians, designed by Sarah Salameh and photographed by Rob Woodcox with choral arrangements by Cat Mahatta. You can donate here: getinvolved.unrwausa.org/team/610563www.instagram.com/p/DAbYzqAvZy...

Using small containers of Play-Doh ensures kids share “small moments” rather than “bed to bed” stories that contain many seed ideas. As peers tell stories, they support each other as language models & reinforce new lang. My #duallanguage#multisensory pre-writing strategy.

3rd day - telling stories w/ a beginning, middle, end, & ACCIONES. I model another story #enespañol from my heart map w/ acciones included on anchor chart. After Ss build, they tell their stories using acciones chart on tables and a list we generate. Chart becomes part of writing resources folder.

Children telling a narrative with acciones and Play-Doh are beginning to transfer ideas to paper.

2nd day - telling stories w/ a beg., mid., end, & PALABRAS DE TRANSICIÓN/ TEMPORALES. I model telling a different story w/ palabras included on anchor chart. After Ss build, they tell their stories using chart on tables. Chart becomes part of their writing resources folder & they add to it.

1st day - telling stories w/ a beginning, middle, end, & EMOCIONES. I model telling a story from my heart map w/ emociones included on anchor chart. After Ss build, they tell their stories using emociones charts on tables. Chart becomes part of their writing resources folder & they add to it.

Get your free COVID tests! Also, I got another Novavax booster. No symptoms! For folks who have shitty interactions w/ momma Moderna & poppa Pfizer, I highly recommend Novavax. Everyone I know who’s gotten it has had either zero symptoms or just a sore arm. Any booster is great though! Stay safe!

Do any of the other things too: protesting, giving to local campaigns to flip the house, phone, phone banking, donating to abortion funds, getting more involved with your local library’s governance, etc.

I’m too overstimulated to socialize after school so postcard writing is great because you can listen to music, focus on writing pre-created messages & simply be in the same space. It’s also “school-safe activism” and “non-partisan” (snorts w/ fingers steepled in evil contemplation).

If you’re a teacher looking to build community w/ your colleagues, I highly recommend hosting postcard writing to swing states. Sign-ups just re-opened! secure.everyaction.com/wWYzSycvi0uy...
