Time Cat by Lloyd Alexander6/10/2023 ![]() ![]() Now, I may be a cat person, and I may be a Harry Potter person, but first and foremost I am a Disney person! The Black Cauldron is an animated Disney movie. This was not a book I’d ever heard of before, older than me even (!), but when I picked it up and looked inside I discovered that this author wrote The Prydain Chronicles, which includes The Black Cauldron. I packed it in my big box o’school stuff to bring home for summer vacation and I just finished it the other day. All year, he asked me to read this book, and I know at least one other student caught on and read it, too. Being a cat fan and a history buff, he immediately read it. ![]() I didn’t know I had it it has the previous teacher’s name written across the front, so it was apparently abandoned when she switched schools. One of my students and I bonded quickly over cat memes, such as this one: He’s a cat person, I’m a cat person= insta-bond! Somewhere in the dark corners of my classroom library he was able to located the book Time Cat. It could be an interesting photo from the news, a quote to think about, a silly meme, or just some instructions for the morning. ![]() Just about every morning in my classroom, I have some sort of welcome message on my board for when the kids walk in the door. ![]()
