Wonderful way to wrap up a week! Thank you @JayHeinrichs for stopping by my classroom to enlighten my students about the joys of rhetoric and argument!

@ClintSmithIII You really should include this in your next collection of poetry. Maybe a collection of COVID-19 reflections on life...? ❤️📖

Shout out to grilled cheese sandwiches. You’re toast. You’re butter. You’re melted cheese. What I mean is you are basically perfect.

Yay! Can’t wait to see my students’ scores! 🤞💪

AP English Literature students demonstrated significantly stronger skills of literary analysis this year than in 2018, increasing the % of students scoring 3+ by several points. Kudos to AP teachers for reversing a multi-year decline in literary analysis. Keep up the good work.

@theteachingcurc @TeachMrReed Then I would say the same thing about all paid professionals. I’ve experienced some pretty crappy medical professionals who still get paid a lot, but no one is questioning their merits.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again:
Start pay for every teacher at $60-75K then watch the education system in America flourish.

Your Teacher Rap Name is “young” or “lil” + your favorite thing to use in the classroom.
What’s your #TeacherRapName?

@ClintSmithIII We read some of your poems earlier in the year and they decided they wanted to read the entire collection. It has opened some excellent dialogue! I know they will take this experience with them. Thank you for speaking your truth!

My students and I found so much inspiration in these lines! I am really loving our study of the beautiful poetry of @ClintSmithIII #TeachLivingPoets #CountingDescent

Great idea! And it can be adapted for many other instructional uses and subjects!

Practicing sight words at home is made much easier with @Flipgrid. Recorded all of our #Kindergarten Sight Words in #PowerPoint as a 🎥 and now my Ss who struggle can practice at home and in the class at their convenience. #FlipgridFever #K2CanToo

@ncte #NCTEvillage @MelAlterSmith Suggestions for books of contemporary poetry with a World Literature emphasis? Currently teaching Counting Descent in #aplit but want something for my sophomores for next year.

@MrsFitz1516 @MelAlterSmith Happy to share! If you're a member, you might also consider signing up for #NCTEverse--we'll be sharing resources for 25 great poets (all curated by members!) during April: www2.ncte.org/resources/onli…

@DawayneMcIntosh @Ozobot I am speechless! What is that? How do you use it with students? Does it communicate with a computer? ‘Splain, Lucy! 😎

@AmyDecker_OG Same here. I’ve been going back to thesis statements lately. My theory is if they have the map (thesis), they know where they’re going. Hopefully then it’s a little easier to get there.

A1. My students perform well on MC, but I'm really pushing for better essay scores. I'd like to find a way to increase their writing confidence and my teaching confidence! They can do the analysis, but getting it to sound good on paper is a challenge.#aplitchat
