• Happy Pride Day to my LGBT+ community. Please know that I am doing my best as an ally to stop the injustices that you all are going through. We should ALL be doing the work to help our friends get the equal rights they deserve. 🏳️‍🌈 (hey @apple , we need a Trans flag emoji ASAP!)
.
If you are a parent of young children and are struggling to find literature to aide in LGBT+ discussions, please swipe for TONS of book suggestions from my friend Mike @thebookwrangler. He is such an amazing educator who provides so much knowledge for those of us who are seeking it. Thank you, Mike! .

Also, there is a link in my profile for a kid friendly explanation of the history of Pride Day. https://youtu.be/UDJIbkSW08U

  • Been spending the last couple of weeks listening, reading, researching, just doing my best to be a better educator than I was yesterday. I’ll be spending the next couple days logging ALL the books you all generously donated to my school library. Will I be reading every single book? I’m going to try my best! BUT knowing that my coworkers and students will have ACCESS to them makes my librarian heart happy.

Thank you again to everyone you donated a book! Words cannot not express my gratitude and respect I have for you. You’ve helped me reach my first goal as a new librarian, which is to make sure my BIPOC students SEE themselves in literature. ❤️ Oh, and can we get the police officers responsible for Breonna Taylor’s murder arrested? Thanks! Link in bio to help achieve that: https://msha.ke/30flirtyfilm/

  • If you don’t think #blacklivesmatter and that systemic racism exists, congratulations, you’re privileged. I’ve lost over 500 followers since I started to be more vocal about current events. If that makes you uncomfortable and you’re not willing to learn and grow, I welcome you to unfollow me because there is no stopping me now.

  • Happy National School Librarian Day! 📖 It seems weird posting this since I haven’t been at school since March 13th. I miss my library. I miss my students. Only time will tell if we are going back to finish out the school year. It doesn’t look promising, since our area is the epicenter of #covid_19. 😔 To all my teacher friends out there, I applaud your hard work and dedication to your students. I see you!

I wanted to take a moment and recognize a few librarians out there that have been so helpful, especially remote teaching during this time of crisis. Thank you for your hard work and sharing your ideas! 🧡 (Tap on the photo to follow these amazing educators) #librariansofinstagram #schoollibrary #theenthusiasticclass

  • I don’t know when I’m going to see my Kindergarten kiddos after today, so all four of my K classes read about St. Patrick’s Day ☘️ and Ireland. 🇮🇪 As always, thank you to @fromthepond for her One-Page crafts. They came out amazing!

In the last swipe, you’ll see the most amazing St. Patty’s Day themed sensory bin (made of colored uncooked chick peas and glitter) from an amazing prek teacher in my building. I only wish I could have played in it, but I’m allergic to glitter! 🙃 She purchase most things from @dollartree and @target. .

I hope that everyone is at home and are safe and healthy and remain that way during this crazy time. My district is closed this week (and may be closed next week as well). I recognize that I am lucky and privileged to be getting paid during this time we are off. Others are not as privileged. Please see my stories and help out small businesses that rely on public events such as conventions and flea markets, which have been cancelled, as their main source of income. Thank you! 😘 #theenthusiasticclass #smallbusinessowner #teachersfollowteachers
