Lots of Halloween fun in the schools today. Not my favorite holiday, but it's great to see staff and students getting into the spirit with some great costumes. I even bumped into a fellow Jake from State Farm! #PeqPantherPride #NockNation

This year, I'll be posting (pinterest.com/corbettharriso…) my daily #writersnotebook entries, which I kept for 15+ years alongside my student #writers. Here are my entries for today and tomorrow. I hope these inspire your students who can't find their own topics or who like challenges

I’ve never heard the word flaneur before…have you? I love how even a seasoned reader has more words to learn in this language!

I am impressed but the courage and determination of the anti-vaxxers and anti-maskers - a fierce rejection of any attempt to limit their freedom May I suggest that they could now start disobeying traffic lights ? See that red, and go for it !!!
