How to Get 1,000 Subscribers on YouTube: tips that helped grow my beginner YouTube channel
I recently hit the 1,000 subscriber mark on my YouTube channel where I chat all things books and I wanted to use that channel as a bit of a case study and share the tips and tricks that I used to grow that channel to 1,000 subscribers in less than a year. The 1,000 subscriber mark is a big milestone because it is one out of two of the requirements to become monetized on YouTube (the other one being 4,000 watch hours). Once I hit the watch hour number I plan on sharing some tips on how to get there. If you would like to learn…

12 of the Best Chapter Books for Grade Four
Back in my short lived school teaching career I always thought grade four was the best age. Kids are still young enough where they liked school but old enough they caught on to sarcasm. It was like the sweet spot as far as ages go. Well, now my oldest is officially done grade four and I have to say, it was a great year! Since we added fostering into the mix this year things looked a lot different than I imagined they would, but one thing stayed the same: she read (and listened to) a lot of books. I asked her to share her favorite books from the year and…
