Stephen Krashen came to my work last week. He said we should be doing the things I‘ve been trying to do. I‘m working on it! Also, he‘s very active on Twitter.

AlaMich I remember him from my linguistics days!! 5y
RebL @AlaMich I used to send him articles for review when I worked for Language Arts journal. That‘s how my connection is—peripheral. But he is an engaging speaker. 5y

This is my favorite library branch. When I worked in town, I used to stop by over lunch. Now it's a bit further, but I love the architectural details and the location. Oh, and the BOOKS! 📚📚👏🏻👏🏻
