A lot of people are bad at math, and there are lots of reasons for that, but as an English educator I want to focus on one reason, literacy. People tend to think of the English discipline when t […]

Fun fact, my college essay was a poem! I just took the lines out and made it a paragraph. I will never understand why I got into colleges with that! My […]

I think my blog posts are getting crazier by the second, but stick with me here. What could I do to make my poetry sound like it’s under […]

I think that’s how it should be, not everything needs to make it to a final draft, the act of writing itself is good to practice. However, I’ve noticed what my […]

The class was all about works of literature that are adapted over and over by other […]

A poem made entirely out of slang terms for sex reminds me of the blonde joke poem we read in class. I hope you choose to write this!

I would love to read more on poetry as therapy. I think a lot of poets (especially those who write without the intent of being published) use poetry as a coping mechanism. […]

Education major to education major, I need you to write this! I often think about the absolutely ridiculous things my students said, and I taught 7, 8, 10, 11, & 12, so I can’t […]

In class today we talked about language, and someone brought up that people think in words, and […]

I used to think that there just isn’t happy poetry. I’m not sure what it was that snapped or changed, but recently I’ve tried writing more upbeat poems. The poem I used for the […]

I wonder what the order of operations would be. Find the “childhood item” and then write about it or write a poem and then transcribe it onto the “childhood […]

Taylor Mali’s “What Teachers Make” is within my top ten poems of all time. I highly recommend that every person listen […]

Something I’m really passionate about is Classroom Libraries; that list I mentioned is all books that I would want […]

I think as a class we should put on a poetry slam on campus or maybe we should just all get together and binge […]

I love her so much, and I think she doesn’t get as much hype as she should!

I see what you […]

It’s impossible for me to do anything without bringing education into it, so while I thought about what I could write this week, education came to my mind as it often does. I […]

However, their technological breakthrough was ignored because of […]

I think you should give a listen to the song “Just Exist” by Eliza and the Delusionals. In the lead singer’s words the song “is about the balance […]

It was a really interesting read. I never mention my favorite genre of music because I don’t have one. I listen to a huge variety. It would be easier to say the only genre I don’t like […]

I’m not an open mic type-of-person, and that is the only thing we seem to have much of. I haven’t heard of Boil the Frog, but that sounds so cool! I will look into it!

My eighth grade English teacher was the first teacher I had who taught poetry in his class. He explained poetry to us as music. Mr Mo was awesome, and he […]

Laird explores writing as a Northern Irish poet in the wake of The Troubles in this book of poetry. I think it would be a good book for you as […]

I chose this book for you for the pure reason that it’s very different from the three films you shared. I haven’t seen any of […]

For me, music is inseparable from my emotions […]
