Spring Green! #ClassroomConnections

May 12, 2021 By Laura

Here in Minnesota, the world has gone green! And it’s almost time for us to get out our inflatable kayak and hit the water!

Spring is an awesome time to look at plants and bodies of water. Check out A Leaf Can Be… and Water Can Be… and all their accompanying resources (just click to go to their pages on my site, which have loads of activity sheets and teaching ideas). (Of course I’d love you to look at A Rock Can Be…, too, but rocks don’t change much all year :>)

[My Classroom Connections posts share a way to connect one of my books or poems to a classroom topic–often something timely that you might be covering in the next month or so. Please share this post if you have educator friends who might be interested–thanks!]

MAY NEWS

All 3 of my 2023 books are out now! Thank you to everyone who's celebrated with me, shared the books, or read/reviewed them. <3

Right now, I'm recovering from National Poetry Month! I'm also working on 2 tricky picture book revisions, and I'm preparing for a bunch of speaking events and storytimes! Join Yvonne Pearson and I for two loon-themed outdoor storytimes on June 6 and August 1. And on July 14, I'll be storying up a storm at Robert Trail Library! Hope to see you there!
