Podcast Overview

[e]nglish Language Arts teachers have the privilege and responsibility of nurturing the reading and writing lives of students, and that means honoring what is in their hearts and on their minds but that also means teachers must nurture their own reading and writing lives so that they know how to ethically do the work; this podcast navigates the being and becoming a teacher of youth who are navigating the language and the art of reading and writing their worlds (shout out to Paulo Freire). *I deliberately did not capitalize the "e" to welcome all art and language within.

Teachers' Spoken Word #VerseLove

<p>On day 26 of #VerseLove, a celebration of poetry for National Poetry Month with teachers, I invited writers to try the count up or count down framework for spoken word. There are over a dozen on Ethical ELA.com, but a few of the writers accepted by nudge to record their voices by way of acknowledging that many of our students connect better to ideas through their voices rather than their hands, i.e., actual writing or typing. &nbsp;And in this way, but speaking our ideas, we celebrate the benefits of multimodal writing -- text, gesture, audio, video, and space. We become proximate when we put our voices into these spaces and listen to one another. &nbsp;Enjoy.</p>

3. Reciprocity and Agency in Writing with Allison Berryhill

<p>Welcome to Ethical ELA, a podcast about teaching English language arts, emphasis on language and art. I am Sarah Donovan, founder of Ethical ELA, and in this episode I talk to Iowa educator Allison Berryhill about reciprocity in writing and her experience hosting the February 5-day writing challenge. Be sure to listen all the way through to hear two poems that will fill your drive to work this Monday morning with joy and inspiration.</p> <p>For more poetry ideas from Allison and to read poems written by English teachers across the country, stop by Ethicalela.com. We hope to write with you during the next 5-day challenge with Michigan teacher Jennifer Jowett, which begins March 14th.</p> <p>And remember what Annie Lamott says:Writing and reading decrease our sense of isolation. They deepen and widen and expand our sense of life; they feed the soul. And don’t we all need a little soul nourishment today? Be well, teacher friends.</p> <p><br></p> <p>What I Have I Lost by Allison Berryhill</p> <p>I did not lose a breast.</p> <p>I lost my passport.</p> <p>I lost the diamond from my engagement ring.</p> <p>I lost the photos of the trip to France</p> <p>The summer I was 16.</p> <p>The same summer I lost my friendship with Ann.</p> <p>But I didn’t lose my breast.</p> <p>The right one</p> <p>No longer here</p> <p>Tissue disposed as</p> <p>Human waste</p> <p>Burned in the incinerator at the University of Iowa.</p> <p>It’s gone, to be sure.</p> <p>But I gave it, willing sacrifice.</p> <p>Not a loss</p> <p>My soft and tender cup</p> <p>Of motherhood,</p> <p>womanhood</p> <p>Identity.</p> <p>Its loss (not loss!)</p> <p>Is as precious to me</p> <p>As the breast itself</p> <p>Ever was.</p>
