Thank you to @cldleadership.bsky.social for holding space today for sharing, learning and listening! I was honored to share some of the stories and our learning from a current research project that weaves together 3 themes that I value and believe are essential in our educational systems.

Today’s adventure in summer literacy was all about visualizing! Describing the setting, using our sense to imagine what we would see? Hear? Smell? Touch? Can you guess which books we are reading by these illustrations of the setting? #literacy #summerlearning #litcircles #kidlit

Adventures in summer #literacy! I’m working with a fantastic group of young people, we created a charter based on how they want to feel during #summerlearning they generated questions to help pick a good book, and then we did a #booktasting to find a few good books for each of them! #kidlit #reading

Grateful for the intentional space that was held for learning and generative discourse. And for the many new connections with scholars and practitioners and the possibilities of future conversations.

And that’s a wrap on an amazing trip - Whitehorse, the traditional and current lands of Ta'an Kwäch'än Council and the Kwanlin Dün First Nation. The warmth and welcome of the many people I met… the stories I heard… and those I learned alongside… feeling grateful and blessed!
