Music Appreciation:  Born for This

Students are often called upon
to read "chorally".

​That is, they read together
simultaneously 
as a group.

Repeating this practice assists young readers with reading fluency - the speed, accuracy, and inflection of  oral reading.

Why not, since it's called "choral" reading anyway, actually read the chorus of a song?

Maybe It's My Fault

Michael Jordan is arguably the best basketball player to walk onto a court.  He is legendary.  This video is intended to make us think about our own efforts, motivations, and roadblocks  (Well actually, they're trying to sell shoes, but don't pay attention to that.).
Take a minute to watch this video:
Now for some questions:
  • ​What is Mr. Jordan's point in this presentation?
  • Why does he say that failure gave him strength and pain was his motivation?
  • How hard do players of professional sports work?
  • Did Michael Jordan set the expectations of basketball too high for anyone to reach?
  • Do people make excuses for not being "good enough"?  In what areas have you seen this?
  • Do we sometimes settle for who we are and stop working for who we could be?

The Thread of "Civil" History

4/28/2019

0 Comments

 
Last weekend, I was in Memphis, Tennessee, just up the street from the location of the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr.  Then, this week, we finally made our way to learning about Elizabeth (Mumbet) Freeman.  Mumbet was a slave during the American Revolution who sued for her freedom, imagining that the Declaration of Independence's "All men are created equal" might just include African Americans.  These two parts of our history are related, but difficult to understand without the context of a timeline.

While our focus, this school year, has been on the Colonial and Revolutionary eras, I like to help students apply those moments to each other and to today (as well as the future).  Again, it is difficult.

What was MLK protesting in the 1960s?  What were the southern and northern states fighting about in the 1860s? Did one I-Have-a-Dream speech and a long walk to a state capitol solve all the problems for black Americans? Were slaves truly freed by the Emancipation Proclamation?  What did Thomas Jefferson mean when he penned, All men are created equal?

Besides the big idea of unfairly treating our fellow man, two concepts have been brought to the forefront in our class.  First, the United States history is often ugly, and second, themes in history are definitely more complicated than they appear - whether talking about the Civil Rights Movement, the removal of Native Americans from their ancestral lands, or the Japanese Internment Camps during the second World War.
Picture
As long as you're looking for something to do on the internet, why not check out the Class Divided website?  Click on the "Watch the Full Program Online" button, and think about how lessons, classrooms, and attitudes have changed - or not changed - since 1970.  In the video, a teacher in an all-white school in Iowa conducts a lesson with a class of third graders.  She purposely injects discrimination into her classroom, not to be cruel, but to simulate the consequences of prejudice for her students.  Within 15 minutes, she says, her class became a microcosm of society, demonstrating the plasticity of our children's beliefs and attitudes.  Once you get to the classroom part of the video, it will be hard for you to stop watching.

Look at how frankly those students speak about the issues and the connections they make.  Wonder how their belief systems were developed.  Who influenced them to believe such things?  Notice the forlorn faces of the students who are assigned minority status.  I'll warn you upfront, though, you may get angry at the teacher, and you may be upset with the choices some of the kids make.  You may also be unhappy with the inappropriate names that are expressed when dealing with the topic of black people.  I am in no means endorsing the use of such derogatory language today, but the brief inclusion of those words in the video wholly demonstrates a culture shift from 1970 to the present.

It was an interesting time.  As I reflect on my own childhood (I was only three or four years, and a couple of states, away from being in the Class Divided.), I realize I never was in a class with an African American until college.  I realize there were only a couple of black students in my elementary school and none in my middle of high schools.  When my mom spoke with other moms about their feelings about busing, I didn't know what they were talking about.  Not long before, Rosa Parks had inadvertently begun the Montgomery bus boycotts, the Freedom Riders had been viciously beaten in Mississippi, and nine black high school students were escorted by the military to attend a previously all-white school in Little Rock, Arkansas.  King was killed when I was three, long before I became interested in American history or politics.  It was a long time before I knew anything about discrimination or racism - though I never liked being called four-eyes.

Picture
Since then, I have given a lot of thought to the Civil Rights era.  I have seen documentaries and fictionalized movies and TV shows.  I have read books and magazine articles outlining many of the issues.

I have made connections throughout history, from the Gullah Islands, Uncle Remus stories, slavery in the American colonies, and the treatment of slaves in the Deep South. I have stood in the courtroom of the infamous Dred Scott Decision right here in Missouri. I have walked in the footsteps of Abraham Lincoln, at his house in Springfield, Illinois.  I have touched cannon and bayonet used during the Civil War.  I have been in President Grant's house, have ridden on Huckleberry Finn's river, and have seen Martin Luther King's Ebenezer Baptist Church.

Picture
​When I had the fortune to visit the Ron Clark Academy in Atlanta, Georgia, I took a few hours to drive to the Martin Luther King Jr. National Historic Site.  While there, I fixated on one object for several minutes - an old, weathered wagon.  I learned from the room that surrounded me that this was the wagon that carried King's body to the cemetery.  King wanted his funeral to be yet another opportunity to preach about inequality and humility.  Drawn by mules, the wagon transported his body through crowds of mourners.  All the other items in the museum - the video screens, oversized photos, and the statuary - paled in comparison with this single, real icon.

​A while ago, on a different trip to Memphis, I walked to the location of King's assassination. It's always interesting to me to stand in the actual location of just about any historic event, to touch items of historic significance, and the internalize the significance of those events.  Making those events come alive in the classroom takes some creativity and some serious conversation in order to pique the interest of fourth graders, but it is a possibility.

​I always approach the ugly times by emphasizing the positive outcomes of those events:  freedom from slavery, equal rights, and more civil treatment of people of color.  Recognizing that the latter, in a big way, is wrought with continued difficulties in our country, progress has been made through generations.  That should move us forward with goals of continued improvement.  Encouraging a positive message for the future must involve a look at the negatives of the past.


Our history is still in the process of being written.  When I consider the ongoing current world issues involving discrimination - religion, gender, orientation, and politics being among the most obvious - I realize the past, present, and future have been delicately intertwined and cannot be simplistically  isolated.   Our history is ugly, and without a doubt, it is complicated.  As we move forward, may our children make more and more righteous and informed decisions.  We're learning from the past for the sake of our future.

Book:  Joplin, Wishing

4/24/2019

0 Comments

 
Around here, when we see the name Joplin, we think of the name of our town, but in this novel by Diane Stanley, Joplin is the name of the main character.  In fact, the book mentions how Joplin received her name, even mentioning that she is not named after Joplin, Missouri.
Picture
From Goodreads:
While cleaning out her reclusive grandfather’s house, Joplin discovers pieces of a broken platter in a cookie tin. After having the platter repaired, Joplin wishes that she could both find a friend at school, and befriend the girl pictured in the platter. The next day, Joplin befriends a boy named Barrett, and also notices a girl outside her apartment. A girl who looks remarkably like the girl in the platter…

The girl introduces herself as Sofie, and she has a terrible secret. Cursed to grant wishes for the owner of the platter for all of time, she has been trapped for centuries. Joplin and Barrett vow to help her, but freeing Sofie is more complicated than they could have imagined, and the three friends end up against a sinister foe who could put them all in terrible danger.
I kept thinking of other ways Joplin could fix her problem.  At times, it seemed that Joplin was so stuck in her own world that she forgot about what she had at her disposal.  Other times, especially in the beginning, it felt like the author was writing for an adult audience, getting bogged down in legal text.

All that to the side, I did find Joplin, Wishing to be an intriguing story.  As ridiculous as the premise - a platter that grants wishes, a girl wished from the platter into reality, an immortal bad guy - it works, and anyone with an open mind might want to read far enough into it to get the full effect of the plot.

Knock Knock

Sometimes it helps to understand another point of view, and sometimes we just need to contemplate some well-rhythmed poetry.  Knock Knock​ may not be something you can relate to...but then again, maybe it is.
Take two and a half minutes to watch this video:
Now for some questions:
  • What emotions does this man present in his tone of voice?  What makes you say so?
  • What happened to his papa?  Why doesn't he answer the boy's knock?
  • Can a person "father" or "mother" himself if he has to?
  • Do parents want better for their children than they have?  How do you know?
  • What does it mean, "You are still my son, but you are not my choices"?
  • What gives a boy strength and wisdom when a parent is absent?

Fort Ticonderoga:  Titles in the Schedule

"Teaching,  Simplified" 15:  More Reasons I Don't Use Textbooks

4/20/2019

0 Comments

 
Picture
I'm not finished yet.  The way I figure it, if a teacher makes a decision he should think of reasons for his decision.  Last week, I posted a link to the first ten reasons I don't use textbooks.  This week, I'm adding ten more reasons to the list.

I've found that some teachers need materials outlined in more detail (AKA, scripted) than others.  I would rather own my materials and methods.  As I have written many times, I'm not exactly what you would call a traditional teacher.

Oklahoma City Bombing Anniversary:  A Message of Hope

4/19/2019

0 Comments

 
The message of April 19 is not one of desperation and pain.  It is one filled with empathy and compassion.  The message of the terrorist attack in Oklahoma City cannot remain one of hatred, but must become a message of hope and a renewed spirit in humanity.  One person committed one horrendous act in hateful revenge, that day, but hundreds of thousands (at least) responded with love and kindness.
When my students see the outpouring of assistance - the blood donations, the search-and-rescue, the donations of food, stuffed animals, flashlights, etc. - they see that the destruction brought something greater than destruction, that day.

The Hope Trunk, loaned to us by the Oklahoma City Memorial Museum, helps students see that the response immense.  It also helps them realize that every positive thought, every ribbon, every Happy Meal toy left at the site encourages victims, survivors, and self.
When my students are able to touch historical artifacts for themselves (and realize that an artifact is created when it is imbued with the event that surrounds it), they come to appreciate the reality of the event.  When they experience the event from somebody who was there, they can better appreciate how recent history can be.
Yes, the presentation of the 1995 attack is shocking.  Yes, the accounts from that day are emotional.  Yes, the wounds of Oklahoma City are still open. But when fourth graders can react with the empathy that these students have, our world is made a better place.  With every reassuring hand on a shoulder, and with every passed tissue to dry the tears, my students not only realized the pains of the attack, but they felt the need to help one another.  Reaching out to one another is just one of the messages I intend to convey in such a presentation.
So yes, history is ugly and dirty.  That's why we must continue to foster new attitudes in students.  I know a few who might better understand that how we treat our fellow man, with revenge or understanding, with tolerance or hatred, matters.  May they forever carry those feelings with them as they advance from my class and into the world.

Historical Links

4/18/2019

0 Comments

 
After learning about the massive chain that was extended across the Hudson River to protect West Point from attack by British ships during the American Revolution, students were given a review of our year through the period.  Making their own chain links, they completed the question on one link with the answer on another.
When completed, they should have had 30 links, and the first should have the answer for the last link.  I learned a lot about how I need to adjust the activity for future classes.

24 Years Ago

4/17/2019

Picture
​April 19, 1995.  Twenty-four years from Friday.

Twenty-four years ago, a young man named McVeigh parked his rented moving truck on the street behind the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City. Inside the truck, a bomb would soon detonate and change the lives of countless people.

One hundred sixty-eight people dead.


I taught second graders just four miles away.  We heard the explosion.  We felt the concussion.  We experienced the emotions.

Confusion.  Fear.  Confusion.

I will relay my story - my personal experiences with the 1995 terrorist attack - today.  My experience with being the one responsible for leading the school into a red alert, locking the outside doors.  My wife's experience of holding the one-year-old who was famously photographed in the firefighter's arms.  My grandmother's experience of panic, thinking "they" were "blowing up Oklahoma City".

It is a history that needs to be remembered, studied, and learned from - one evil act counteracted by hundreds of thousands of generous responses in return.  This, like Joplin's response to the tornado, eight years ago, was a defining moment - a moment when we found out who we were.  In Oklahoma City, they call that response "The Oklahoma Standard".

We will look at my pictures of the Oklahoma City National Memorial, today.  I'll take our fourth graders inside one of the best museums I've ever experienced.

Teacher Accepted to Visit America's Fort

4/16/2019

4 Comments

 
CONGRATULATIONS!
I am pleased to invite you to participate in our Fort Ticonderoga Teacher Institute on “World Wars: Historical Comparison of the French & Indian War and World War I”...
Picture
That was the message in my emailbox, when I opened it, yesterday morning.  I have to admit to being both excited and anxious at the prospect of visiting Upstate New York for the first time.  I am told the area is absolutely beautiful, and the added benefit of studying the French and Indian War and World War I in such an iconic and historic location only heightens my appreciation for the opportunity.

If I get to accept the opportunity, I will travel to New York (likely via the Vermont airport), adding two more states to my list of experiences.  While there is not much information - yet - about the week I get to spend at the fort, they did let me know about our teacher facilitator, Tim Potts.  It will be Mr. Potts' job to wrangle the teacher group for the week, making sure we arrive in the right locations at the right times with the right materials and attitudes.
Tim Potts, a middle school lead Social Studies teacher from Monticello, New York, will be working with me during the Institute as the Teacher Facilitator. Tim is a veteran teacher that has presented at the local, state, and national levels on innovative ways to teach Social Studies. Tim is the current Treasurer, past President of the New York State Council for the Social Studies, and is now on the board of the National Social Studies Supervisory Association. He will be staying at the Best Western during the week and will be an excellent resource for you.
There will also be some reading assignments to complete ahead of the journey, and of course, that nerve-wracking anticipation that comes with making flight plans, driving plans, and personal plans, all while waiting and waiting for the day to arrive.  Only 12 teachers are selected from the states and territories of the U.S. and international teachers may also apply, so it is truly a rare honor to be afforded the opportunity.

In the meantime, time marches on as I must seriously consider my option to participate.
Once you’ve accepted this offer, I will be in touch with further details. I look forward to spending a week with you and your fellow Institute teachers this summer at our Seventh Fort Ticonderoga Teacher Institute.
