Students will explore essential terminology, learn how to annotate poetry, and apply these skills to diverse poets from past and present - including a few your students are already engaging with!

All of the resources are suitable for both in-person and distance learning classrooms (Ontario teachers I see you ❤)

"I feel that if we don't take seriously the ways in which racism is embedded in structures of institutions, if we assume that there must be an identifiable racist who is the perpetrator, then we won't ever succeed in eradicating racism." - Angela Y. Davis

AAPI community: we don't need a headline to call it what it is to know what was at the root of this week's tragic events.

So many educators were quick to step to the plate with resources, books, lessons, and other ways to address anti-Asian racism in and beyond our classrooms. @musicpluscoffee shared an informative post on how to be an ally in the music classroom, but that mindset really translates beyond the music room to all learning environments in our school.

Have you come across any resources this week that have been useful to combat anti-Asian racism? Comment below if you have any gems to share 👇🏼

If you're looking for high engagement activities for ELA, try using movie trailers to teach literacy concepts and literary analysis.

This freebie is available in my TpT shop and can be used with any movie trailer.

Another activity my students have loved in the past has been creating their own movie trailers for novels they've studied throughout the course of the year. This activity challenges them to use drama and media to express theme and characterization while avoiding basic summarization. I have an assignment outline with a student example available in my TpT shop as well 💓

To my Ontario friends out there who are supposed to be on break right now: go ahead and say yes to all of the things that make you happy this week. You're the MVP in this game - be sure to treat yourself like it.
