Today marks day βπ½ of Black History Month. I challenge you to honor Black History month that tells the true history of Black people AND honor the excellence. Honor the existence in before slavery. Honor the existence in spite of racism. Honor the excellence in spite of lack of recognition. Honor the history in spite of the bans, the erasure and the fictitiousness embedded within. This month is for all Black folks living, breathing, in their joyful, resilient, in spite of ways. This month is for our ancestors who paved the way in big and small, but mighty in spite of ways. Itβs day βπ½ of Black History Month. Are you up for the challenge? π€π«Άπ½
Hello fellow teachers and friends! I began teaching in 2001. It is amazing to think that! I can't believe that I have taught so many grade levels and facilitated learning for teachers for so many years! My teaching began in South Carolina, then Virginia and the now in Georgia. My 21 years in teaching and education have taught me a lot about relationship building, authentic teaching and learning, life long learning and the importance of caring for self. I truly feel that those years upped my level of teaching in ways that I never could have imagined! My love is literacy and infusing diverse books in all we do. I am back in the classroom and I am also an Instructional Coach! I was an Instructional Coach in schools for 5 years and 2 years+ now as a consultant. Iβve written two books too! (If you would love to support there is a link in my blog) This blog is my journey. Hopefully you will stick with me!
