me: [loses goddamn mind]
so, why do it then?
The Wild Robot & The Wild Robot Escapes by Peter Brown
I cannot recommend these two books enough. Like Iâm obsessed. Iâm a 32 year woman and I teach 2nd grade, and I canât tell who loved these books moreâme or my students. We all adored them.
I teach in a US city public school with majority EL students, and this sweet book and her sequel have been my favorite read alouds ever. Itâs so EL friendly with most of the vocabulary being nature-themed. The books are so approachable for every kind of reader, and have simple, yet elegant poetic language and darling illustrations that are accessible for readers of all language levels.
The tender story of Roz the robot and her adopted goose son will especially speak to anyone who has ever felt out of place, who has struggled to find their own identity, or who has discovered the joy of finding a home. This could honestly be a great read aloud for any elementary grade beyond first grade, or for you to enjoy as an grown-up.
Things I learned after teaching literacy for 10 years...and after making many, many mistakes. Are these hard and fast rules? Of course not. But these helped me foster a love of reading with my students, and helped bring more joy into our classroom.
1. Reading comprehension questions is not how people learn to love reading. Answering basic reading comprehension questions rarely helps students grow. The students who can already answer the questions independently donât need to, and the ones who canât answer the question wonât.
2. Read out loud. No matter the age, no matter if youâre all listening to an audiobook/podcast, no matter if itâs an op-Ed piece, no matter if itâs Strega Nona for the 30th time. Read meaningful and authentic text out loud.
3. When youâre reading out loud, pause only when necessary to clarify meaning so you donât interrupt the flow of reading. Let them get hooked!
4. Make a class on epic! so your students can read and listen to books for free during school hours! Plus there are so many engaging nonfiction books at all level that you can present to your class.
5. Every student should have a chance to read something at their level every day. Itâs their right as a reader.
6. Be open about what you love to read about, and talk about your own journey as a reader! I talk about my books clubs and describe to my second graders how I still stay up late reading, or how proud I was when I finished reading my 1,000+ page fantasy novel.
7. Use videos to supplement vocabulary/topics! Especially if you have students who are English Language Learners. Nat Geo has these great short (3-5 min) videos about so many topics.
8. When in doubt, read about animals. Every child loves reading about animals.
9. Allow space for students to recommend books they loved or ask them for recommendations.
10. Keep reading sacred and fun! And smile. You get to teach reading, the best thing in the world.

I know that Peterâs Jackson Lord of the Rings trilogy technically has flaws but also....it doesnât. Itâs perfect.
âAre these magic cloaks?â asked Pippin, looking at them. with wonder.
âI do not know what you mean by that,â answered the leader of the Elves. âThey are fair garments, and the web is good, for it was made in this land. They are Elvish robes certainly, if that is what you mean. Leaf and branch, water and stone: they have the hue and beauty of all these things under the twilight of Lorien that we love; for we put the thought of all that we love into all that we make.â
- Fellowship of the Ring, Chapter 8: Farewell to Lorien
This is how I think of Jacksonâs movies. Yes, there are serious flaws - Gandalfâs de-powering, Gimli as comic relief, and Faramir, namely - but come on.
Remember when the guys making their chain mail invented a new method for quickly producing large amounts of it by hand? Remember Miranda Otto walking down the street, practicing sword positions? The guys who forged all of the swords - for leads and for extras? The men and women riders who volunteered to be riders of Rohan? The costume designers who designed the inside of Theodenâs armor (which no one would ever see) so beautifully that Bernard Hill said he felt like a king? The friendships between the cast, and their size doubles, and the stuntmen?
When they made that movie, they put all that they loved into all that they made.
#just hundreds of people who went âsure let me try thisâ #and they made something breathtaking #and then they made it 12 more times in different sizes ( @byjoveimbeinghumbleâ )
Wait tell me more about that chainmail thing
âKaynemaile has worked tirelessly to perfect the material science behind beautiful architectural mesh, collaborating with architects and designers on projects that embolden urban environments with positive buildings. The companyâs patented polycarbonate mesh, inspired by 2,000-year-old medieval chainmail, was initially created for the armor and weapons seen in the The Lord of The Rings movie trilogy and is now used on major architectural projects around the world.
âThe filmâs art director and Kaynemaileâs founder Kayne Horsham worked with his team to construct each garment from plastic plumbing tubes, coating them in pure silver. Once filming wrapped, Horsham dedicated himself to creating a change to the liquid state assembly process to mass produce the polycarbonate chainmail for architectural applications â products that were light, but strong enough to protect the interior or exterior of a building. Now an industry-leading manufacturer, Kaynemaile produces mesh for everything from small interior screens to large scale exterior façades. Their mesh is easy to install and can be custom created for specialized applications.â

Kaynemaile's patented mesh façade systems are incredibly lightweight and easy to install while bringing a bold look to any scale building.

âMy acting was worse. I was trying to impress her so much I wasnât doing anything.â (To his credit, Weisberg and Fields insist they didnât notice any glitch in Rhysâs performance.) And then, as if heâs just realizing this for the first time, Rhys shouts: âTHATâS WHY WE DIDNâT GET NOMINATED FOR EMMYS IN SEASONS ONE, TWO, AND THREE. DAMN YOU, KERI RUSSELL!â â Matthew Rhys
