Quote Collections
Quote Collections are just that—sets of quotes around a literacy or professional development theme. Provocative, funny, thoughtful—each collection has a range of quotes to spark discussion, focus inquiry, or foster reflection. These quotes might be used in study groups, shared between mentors and colleagues, or highlighted as a "Quote of the Month" in school newsletters.
