I’m excited to get to know all of you this year as we grow together as readers, writers, and critical observers of and participants in the world.
I send all important and weekly updates through email. This website is more of an archive of the activities we do throughout the year, so please check your email for up-to-date announcements! If you have not been receiving my weekly emails, please let me know.
As we explore literature and the world this school year, this site will begin to fill with photos of our adventures.
Feel free to contact me at any time, and I am looking forward to working with all of you this year.
All the best,
Dr. Tom
