177: Highly Recommended: Starfish

Welcome to this week’s episode of the Highly Recommended Series. Every Thursday we take a quick look at something I think you’ll love. What will that something be? It might be a compelling book for your students, a power-packed activity to try ASAP, my favorite new episode of a podcast I think your class will love, a free resource you might have missed, or even a recipe for your next Monday night or a city here in Eastern Europe I want to share with you! This will be a fun, free-wheeling series that you can tune into with just a few minutes to spare.  This week we dive into a beautiful novel-in-verse, Starfish, by Lisa Phipps. This is a great one for the choice reading shelf in your ELA classroom or for middle grade novel-in-verse book clubs.  Check out Starfish at Bookshop.org.  Explore Alllll the Episodes of The Spark Creativity Teacher Podcast.  Join our community, Creative High School English, on Facebook.  Come hang out on Instagram.
