If I wanted to parlay that into a book, it would have to be a children's book about all the common lost items (keys, socks, glasses) and where they go. If you're an illustrator, let me know and we'll make it happen!(less)

Quotes by Miriam Plotinsky (?)

“As teachers, we hold the power to shape and reshape our classrooms into what we consider to be an ideal state. Our vision of what that looks like changes from year to year, and that is the fundamental privilege of teaching: that we can be agile enough to keep getting better, and to keep remodeling our classrooms in the way that best serves our students.”
― Miriam Plotinsky, Teach More, Hover Less: How to Stop Micromanaging Your Secondary Classroom
