Hello fellow VATESOL members and allies.

I am Lisa Johnson the VATESOL Blog Editor, and advocate for English Language Learners.

Are you looking for a summer book club to help you get ready to start your next school. Do you want to make your classroom more responsive but are not sure how? 

This summer I will lead a book club for educators and allies.

We will be reading Paula Denton and Roxann Kriete's the First Six Weeks of school. Asa group we will come together and discuss the text and how we can build social emotional learning activities into our practice.

If you are interested we will meet in late July and 2 times in August via Zoom.

If you want to learn more about the book and the authors you can read more here.

You may order the book for anywhere books are sold but I prefer Abe.com or Alibris.com for affordability.

The ISBN # is 9781892989048

If you are interested in joining  kindly complete the Google form here by July 15th.
