Can you believe it? The first day of July will be here before we know it! Here are a few suggestions to get you in the summer mindset:
Reflect.
Take some time to consider the journey you鈥檝e taken this school year. What will you take into the next school year? What will you leave behind? This blog post shares an example of that kind of reflection.
Recharge.
One way to prime your batteries for the next school year is to learn something new! A couple of options we recommend this summer are the聽2021 Literacies and Languages for All (LLA) Summer Institute聽and the聽2021 Summer Sandbox Series, a four-week series exploring the historic, creative, civic, and disciplinary qualities of annotation.
Relax.
