Description

Hello everyone! Literacy Essentials by Regie Routman (Stenhouse 2018) is by far one of the most influential books I’ve read in my teaching career. It’s a book I turn to weekly for advice, insight, and encouragement in my work to bring authentic literacy to my students. 

So when I was given a chance to talk to Regie herself, I knew I couldn’t pass up the opportunity.

In part 1 of the podcast, we dove deep into the increasingly alarming practice of talking about students as if they are data points and not children. We discussed why we need to humanize our classrooms, and how to think about our school culture in a way that fosters equitable practices.

Today, we take a look at some practices we are letting happen in our classes and schools that are hurting students, and what to do about them.

Among other topics, we hit on:

  • Why breaking everything into parts makes learning harder for students
  • Why “training” is not professional learning
  • How modeling can elevate your lessons
  • What it takes to begin innovating as a teacher, and as a student

Do not miss it! 

Enjoy!
