So grateful for the group read of Becoming an Everyday Changemaker! The format, along with the discussion, helped to push my thinking and also the one chapter per week made it manageable to read during the school year. I got a little behind over the winter break but just finished it last night on my plane ride home.

Also, you inspired me to join the yearlong WolfHall slow read! I started it yesterday and am already loving it.

Thank you again for all of your posts! Love the edu community here on Substack 🙏

Thank you for this reflection as we start a new calendar year in our classrooms! I truly needed these inspiring words of gratitude right now as a reminder to focus on the positives and the amazing students I get to teach every day. The moments you shared resonate perfectly with why I know I'm still in the classroom. I had a similar moment right before break as a student starting explaining the meaning behind a poem in class. As she spoke, her epiphany was so tangible to our entire class that I actually got head to toe chills and a bit teary-eyed when she finished! Those "light bulb" moments are truly what keep us going! And we need to celebrate them when they happen!
