Hey youcubians, I am looking for someone who can illustrate ideas well, (one of those great sketch art teachers maybe?) to work with me on a project. If interested could you share some work here? Here is one I loved:

The latest series to fly off the shelves in 4th grade is the Digusting Critters series by @EliseGravel ! Can’t wait to get more from this engaging NF series.
What a great learning day this is going to be! @hpmsraiders @hpisdschools

In the final moments of tonight's #SupperClub, @LucyCalkins shared that #TCRWP will continue these weekly gatherings next year. The applause 👏🏻 in the chat box reverberated! These conversations have renewed us all, and we all so grateful for this community.

Bookmapping is the work of planning at the page level. Once a creator has a sense of the story arc, the story must be paced across pages. Bookmapping is one strategy to accomplish this. Amazing work by @GinnyBowles & crew!
My graphic novelists are bookmapping today: the big, spread out plans that show the “big pictures” of their books. Each @Postit represents one page. 😍 @writtenbyhand @GraceChough @WilkinsonCISD

An estimation problem: Is 187 x 4 greater or less than 1000? No paper or pencil. How would you decide? Listen to two students, two different explanations. #MTBoS ListeningToLearn.com

There isnt anything better than enjoying a good poem with a friend. Fifth graders are using tools out of their poetry toolbox to enjoy and analyze poetry. @hpmsraiders @hpisdschools @TCRWP
When a teacher says, "Let's review fractions" and the entire class cheers...you know the students have an engaging teacher.
