Two Reminders:
- The ChatGPT vs Kristian's Templates Battle Royale is tonight.
- The next Teach It "Write" 5-Week Mastermind begins on January 29th. The good folks at the National Writing Project and I are excited to unroll an incredible PD opportunity. Enrollment doors are open.
Happy teaching and happy writing
