I wanted to share the poetry lesson that Jim Jordan and I delivered at the Mosaic Conference. Jim analyzed Lawrence Ferlinghetti’s “Baseball Cantos” and I read Juan Felipe Herrera. Jim and I had a blast doing this. youtu.be/hvoAXbOxwKc
Isabel Wilkerson’s piece in today’s The New York Times Magazine is terrific. I hope to use this with my students this year. nytimes.com/2020/07/01/mag…

The AP English essay rubrics calling for complexity and tension as a means for earning the sophistication point validates the work of #DisruptTexts.
These folks inspire me in the classroom.

This week I am working towards helping students with this aspect of the sophistication point in the RA rubric: Explaining a purpose or function of the passage’s complexities or tensions. #aplang newyorker.com/news/daily-com…">newyorker.com/news/daily-com…](newyorker.com/news/daily-com…">newyorker.com/news/daily-com…)
My students discuss a Netflix Chef Table episode and a Glamour Magazine profile on Mashama Bailey. It is a vehicle for a diverse class to discuss race, gender, and class. Below are three short clips from the Socratic Seminar youtu.be/0W59SMyrFLs youtu.be/SoIfmKbAYmY

Listen to the NPR Fresh Air interview with Bryan Stevenson. I listened to it in the car today, while running errands. The striking comment that haunts me is crop in a photo below. npr.org/2020/01/20/796…
I wanted to share some of the content for my presentation for the GCTE conference. #aplang #aplit #aplangchat apcommunity.collegeboard.org/group/apenglis…
Tampering with the National Archives & photos of 2017 Woman's March, revelations of Georgia Voting Machines tampering and using technology to cheat in baseball by stealing signs. A hell of week. Is this who we are as a nation? Or is the crime getting caught?
Honored to be asked to come to AP Lang reading a week earlier than most readers next summer to pull samples for the important task of using the new analytical rubrics. #aplang #aplangchat
