I need some new professional developments books for teaching middle school ELA. I am a lifelong learner and am always looking for ways to improve my practice.
I am always wanting to learn more so that I can continue to grow as an educator. I'm excited to increase my knowledge about best practices in teaching middle school ELA. I hope to apply what I learn about teaching nonfiction to my teaching of the Hidden Figures book. I also hope to learn more about teaching my middle school students who are still struggling readers.
These items will improve my ability as an educator and enhance my student’s learning experience.
Thank you so much for helping me on my journey as I continue to grow as an educator.
