Hello!

How are you all? I miss our IRL L.A. Labs! Please use the feedback form below if you've got questions, content ideas or suggestions for how I can assist you in this season of distance learning. Alternatively, you could drop into our Flipgrid (7th and 8th), SFS Library Instagram or schedule a Zoom meeting with Mrs. Echols. ​
In the meantime, I've rounded up ways for you dive into National Poetry Month from home. 
  1. Sign up for free Epic! ebooks. This book selection trends a little young, but you can find some old favorites like Big Nate, Diary of a Wimpy Kid, and Weird But True, as well as novels in verse and poetry. Ask your family to email me at [email protected] to set up an account. 
  2. Peruse BookRiot's 100 YA Novels in Verse list. 
  3. Need to buy books? You can still get books from: ​
    1. BookPeople's Online BookShop
    2. Amazon (tip: notice if the top results are labeled "Sponsored"),
    3. Austin Public Library's Virtual Library
    4. Half-Price Books online. 
  4. The Poetry Foundation (learn about poets and read their poetry! Start with the current Young People's Poet Laureate Naomi Shihab Nye)
  5. Poetry Organization (I especially loved the Poem-a-Day!​​
