When the shared reading passage is so engaging you go home to implement what you learned. 🫶🏽 These two friends made friendship bracelets after reading about the origin. 🥰 We love Storyworks @BrightAcadFISD

We were inspired to learn more about elephants’ adaptations after reading about a former circus elephant, Flora, in the latest #StoryWorks magazine. Today, we connected with an educator from @ElephantsTN who taught us more about the lives of the elephants at the Sanctuary 🐘

My graphic fiction story, Nat Good Enough, is in Scholastic’s Storyworks and Storyworks 3 magazines. Nat is about to enter a comics contest when she gets a dose of self-doubt as she compares her drawings to Luca’s. #ScholasticMagazines #Storyworks #Storyworks3 @ScholasticEdu

I am so excited to see my graphic fiction story, “Nat Good Enough” in this month’s episode of Scholastic’s Storyworks Magazine. Nat faces imposter syndrome when she and Luca enter a comics contest.
