We are excited for a special week of virtual library events!
Every week, I put together a schedule of events including read aloud's, Chapter Book Friday, special virtual visits with authors, illustrators and lots of experts, and we always include the amazing Flipgrid Virtual Field Trips.
You can read all about the Flipgrid Virtual Field Trips here in this post.
This week the Flipgrid Virtual Field Trip is Celebrate Inauguration Day with Theresa Howell,
coauthor of Leading the Way: Women in Power from our friends at Candlewick.
Leading the Way: Women in Power honors 50 American leaders who have stood up, blazed trails, and led the way including Vice President-elect Kamala Harris who will be the first woman, and the first Black and South Asian person, to hold this position; Jeannette Rankin, who, in 1916, became the first woman elected to Congress; Shirley Chisholm, the first African-American woman elected to Congress; Sandra Day O'Connor, the first woman to sit on the Supreme Court; and Bella Abzug, who famously declared, “This woman’s place is in the House . . . the House of Representatives!”. Theresa Howell is the coauthor of the award-winning Maybe Something Beautiful with F. Isabel Campoy, illustrated by Rafael López. She is also the author of the picture book series Scout Moore, Junior Ranger.
You can register for this event here. This link can be shared with our virtual learning families too.
In this post from August 2020, I wrote about how we would be using this weekly calendar, and others throughout the year, to keep us organized for our face-to-face and virtual learners. If you'd like to use the template for Our Library and Virtual Events, you will find it in the post.
