Hello there!
Hello there! May you find inspiration to celebrate your story, even in the middle of the muddle.
I returned to my first love—the classroom—in the 2026-2027 school year. Previously, I served as a:
- professional learning director for The Lead Learners (2018-2026)
- the editor in chief of the Choice Literacy website (2019-2026)
- an instructional coach (2004-2018)
- a 7th grade teacher (2000-2004)
I write books, articles and other stuff because I’m sure stories + teachers make the world a better place. Most importantly, I’m completely charmed by my forever family. Welcome to my corner of the world.
Don’t miss my website!
Ruth Ayres is my home on the web. You’ll find announcements and contact information.
My latest book will be out in 2027.
Thank you for sharing. I know you are somewhat private when it comes to sharing in regards to your faith. I was so moved that I shared the video with Mark and it resulted in a conversation that lasted at least 20 minutes (and is sure to carry over into our lives for the next few weeks). There is so much power in the way the message is delivered through the rhythm of speech, the words on the screen and the images. I am guessing this was also fodder for discussion between you and Andy. Thanks again for sharing. I am looking forward to reading when you are ready to share more.
