If you're an English teacher and the only change you make this year is to start centering poetry? I really can't think of a better change to make. thebrokencopier.substack.com/p/why-i-love...

For those who forgot Ray Bradbury's short story "The Veldt," it's an excellent allegory for the addictive properties and default parenting of social media; possibly predictive of future AI. #njed #edusky #iteachenglish #socialmedia

Today's conversation: Writing is not the production of written words. Writing is a deeply embodied, multimodal process, and when we fail to treat it this way, we fail to serve many young writers well. We need to MAKE and SPEAK throughout the process, not only in rehearsal. Writing is design. :)

When doing #genealogy research, I often find myself thinking, "Wow, there's a story here... wonder what happened here..." 🤔 Are you #writing down your stories? Even what you think are the most mundane, everyday stories might be interesting to others, especially in the future. What do you think?

Leadership isn’t confined to a title. Many people don’t see themselves as leaders because they lack a specific role, but the truth is we’re all leaders in our own way. The most effective leaders inspire those around them to recognize & believe in the unique gifts they possess. #Leadership #edusky
