💙🔮 Happy Blue Witch Wednesday! My favorite day of the week is here again—and Episode 2 of The Blue Witch Readalong is OUT NOW! But there’s a lot more magic coming this week… 📚 TODAY: A brand-new chapter of The Blue Witch 💌 THURSDAY: The newsletter drops, and it is PACKED with fun stuff!

🔮 A new Blue Witch Watchalong is out today! You’ve read the chapter. You’ve spotted the clues. You’ve got theories. Now let’s talk about them. Episode 101 of The Blue Witch Watchalong is live! 💙 We’re heading back inside Chapter 1 to look at the things you might have missed!

We’re casting a spell to bring The Blue Witch Readalong to SXSW EDU in 2027 — and we need your help! Our proposed session will explore how our new series transforms a middle-grade novel into a fully animated, karaoke-style reading experience. Vote now : bit.ly/3TO7Q4s

Have you registered for our upcoming webinar talking about all things Clear The List with Alane? Why would you want to miss the most fun event of the summer. Will there be live list shopping? Absolutely. List critiques? You got it. Tips and tricks? We got em. Register at AlaneAdams.com

The most asked question on the internet: How do I get Alane's attention to shop my list 😁 . Do you have to do elaborate tiktok dances or AI generated videos to get shopped? Thankfully no...although some of them are a lot of fun. #ClearTheList is a time to bring the #teacher community together.

Another helpful hint on how to stay out of the dreaded red file! The red file is where your registration goes for #clearthelist if you share a link with us we can't shop. Yesterday we talked about sharing registries, and today we're talking about the invite link a lot of you shared.

JUNE 1st IS HERE! Which means it's time to start our #ClearTheList campaign which is our favorite time of year! Be sure to read our newsletter out today to find out how to register and don't miss out on the upcoming LIVE webinar with Alane as she talks about all things list-related!

The world premiere of Smudge Eps 5 is tomorrow! Is your class as excited as I am?? We will be live on our webinar at 9am and 11am PST, and a prerecorded webinar will also be available at Smudge's Corner with all the Eps 5 resources. Download the drawing worksheet or coloring page for your students!
