Blue Spruce

Mrs. Lyons will be reading all 10 of the Blue Spruce books as part of our Live from the Library story time. Check our weekly LLC Newsletter and Tugra Times to see when each book will be read.


  • This year we will be pairing the Blue Spruce books from the Forest of Reading with a selection of books from the First Nations Communities Read list and other anchor texts as we explore the big ideas outlined below.

  • We will be using the Historically Responsive Learning Model from Gholdy Muhammad's book, Cultivating Genius, to frame the learning for our Blue Spruce program.

  • Each book has a designated page with links, activities, maker prompts and more!
