Teachers! I'm giving away a signed, personalized class set of the new paperback edition of #wishtree, which includes a letter from me, discussion questions, and more. ❤️🌳
RT + follow for a chance to win for your classroom! I'll pick a random winner this Wednesday, 4/26.
I always appreciate a cooking analogy: Which part of the recipe do we break to make it better? In the classroom this translates to which traditions do we have to disrupt when they no longer center kids? @LitConCoalition@NQCLiteracy@MisterMinor#LitCC2022
Beliefs and theories alone are not going to move the work forward. Shifts start by expanding on the doing. In the classroom we can change so many things: participation, student responses, grading, teaching methods, routines, classroom polices. @MisterMinor@NQCLiteracy#LitCC2022
Teachers! This one is for you, for always finding the strength to give young people hope, even in the most difficult circumstances. Thank you.

No matter how many people tell me we need a new approach to racial justice based on kindness and love, I say, no, we need a new approach to kindness and love based on racial justice.
