  • "Those that Can't Do, Teach"??

    I should have put this link in my last post instead of ''Teach your Children,'' which goes well with this post. It will take you to a ''YouTube'' video of an amazing band of kids called ''The Homemade Jamz Blues Band.'' A link to the album can be found on my Music Recommendations list on the right. “Those who can’t do, teach.” ...

  • measuring the twigs while the tree dies

    While sitting in a PLC Audit meeting, a teacher sits their quietly for forty minutes.  It's common in a group of mostly white males to unintentionally censor and African-American woman.  Call it white noise.  Sometimes a screaming injustice just sounds like a hum when you're in the power culture. Finally, though, she ventures out and offers ...

  • Bradbury's "The Veldt" Empowered My Civil Disobedience!

    Ironically, as a language arts teacher the last set of lessons I taught were for the short story ''The Veldt'' by Ray Bradbury. The truth is, my last week as a teacher I did not want to cheat my good students from their education, so I decided to search for something meaningful to teach which would carry me to survive throughout the week. As I ...

  • The Deep End of the Pool

    This past summer, I enjoyed watching my 6-year-old explore the community swimming pool. When he was younger, he wouldn’t leave the 2-foot-deep section because he couldn’t touch the bottom, but last year he finally gained the confidence to float and swim in the area where he can’t stand up.  It was a significant moment [...]

  • My Top 5 Moments from NCTIES 2010

    There are certain advantages to attending a state-level conference in your own backyard.  First, it’s cheap (especially if you’re a presenter), and it’s difficult to understate the importance of this when millions of dollars are being trimmed from my district’s budget.  Second, travel time is reduced considerably, allowing one to drop off sub ...

  • the perils of being a moderate

    My left-wing progressive friends feel disenchanted with Obama.  The slogans of hope and change have run dry and they're confused by a president who has failed to pass health care reform, continues to pursue war and has bailed-out large corporations rather than helping individuals.  Add NCLB 2.0 and they have no faith in their leader.  In their ...

  • We All Can't Be Rocket Scientists!

    Parents and students need to be held accountable. We have to stop throwing money at our educational system. More money is not the solution. Lack of resources, and lack of funding are not the reasons our system is a failure. Great teachers and motivated students will engage in teaching and learning under the most dismal of circumstances. Just look ...
