A4 I do a lot of challenges and they’re usually big hits! Recently my students really like the “unloved” books challenge. They get a raffle ticket when they check out a book that hasn’t been checked out in a couple years or less than 4 times! Kids ask me “where are the sad books?” #tlskychat

Social media is a great tool for me! I love when I see other teacher librarians post books they use with their classes or authors share their newest releases! I get tons of ideas from Instagram and now Bluesky! #tlskychat

I don’t know if this counts exactly, but I can’t live without my critique group(s). I could draft a story anywhere or anytime and with any writing device, but without them, it’s just words. #kidlitchat
