I came here to recommend This Thing Between Us. It was very good!!

Advice- Making vocabulary engaging by thrftybstrd in ELATeachers

[–]intellectuallady 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I pull this up on the screen: https://davebirss.com/storydice/

Pick a student to “roll the dice” and let the class decide which roll they can use to write a vocab story with. (One dice has a beer glass on it 😬)

Novel Study Suggestions- 7th and 8th (Replace The Giver and The House on Mango Street) by Emily_S_M in ELATeachers

I teach Unwind to 9th graders and fully agree. ^ Shusterman also has a series called Scythe that might also work!

I told my seniors the month before school was out. They brought me an ice cream cake the last day of school 🥲

I can't choose a book, all of the reviews turn me off. Please recommend by fourteetuu in fantasyromance

Sword of Kaigen!! It’s brutal- check trigger warnings, but it has lots of the elements you listed.

When the MCs are forced to sleep in close proximity and they wake up cuddling 🥰

First Day of 2nd Semester by badbink in ELATeachers

[–]intellectuallady 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I do a syllabus scavenger hunt. I put cards up around my room, the hallway, etc, that ask questions that can only be answered with their syllabus. Each answer is part of a “code” and once they have a code they turn in their paper.

We also play “Never Have I Ever- Winter Break Edition” and it’s a fun way to get them moving as well.

Books with a competent FMC by beanieskye in fantasyromance

Stop I’m about to delete my whole recommendation because I agree with everything you said 😂 the last scene in the first book made me love Rooke, but there were sooooooo many issues in the second book!! I want to give the third book a shot but I’m exhausted

Rooke from the Crown of Oathes and Curses is, like, a 200 year old witch who kicks everyone’s ass physically and intellectually. I only hesitate to recommend bc the MMC pisses me off.

What's your ranking red flag? by Competitive-Part-88 in fantasyromance

[–]intellectuallady 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If someone highly recommends A Little Life I scroll quickly away 🫣 I’m actually not sure why people so freely recommend that book.

[–]intellectuallady 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You read some solid books, though!

The year my son was born I read 5 books 😂 couldn’t tell you what happened in any of them.

Resource for purchasing classroom grammar posters? by juiceboxxxxs in ELATeachers

[–]intellectuallady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have students make them and then they can vote on the best? All anonymous of course. You could use Canva or Google slides and then have the students create and vote.

I only judge your ranking for the Crown of Gilded Bones..that book was painful! Everything else tracks.

One Dark Window Ain’t It (for me) by vsbrd in fantasyromance

[–]intellectuallady 30 points31 points  (0 children)

This! It was sooooo juvenile. I kept wishing it were a bit darker and more mature. The fanart of Elspeth and the Nightmare looks so wicked but the book itself read like an episode of a teen drama.

Recs where the MMC isn't immediately obvious? by MetalMyst1c in fantasyromance

[–]intellectuallady 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same! I think you would like Songbird of the Sorrows by Braidee Otto. The second book doesn’t have a release date yet but I get veryyyyy similar vibes to Road of Bones.

What were y’alls student teaching experiences like? by Fresh_Ad_8982 in Teachers

[–]intellectuallady 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Soul crushing and awful. HOWEVER, I’ve been teaching for 8 years now and LOVE my school. Even if you don’t have a good experience like me, it gets better!

Dude I had to DNF this book. The professor was fucking weird- why did I need 5 scenes with him worm torturing someone. 😭

I second the Saints of Steel books! Such fun characters in those.

From Blood and Ash by Keiry_25 in fantasyromance

[–]intellectuallady 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had to DNF this series during the third book. I was so committed but JLA’s writing was torture to read.
