In this very special episode, the Teachers Changing Teaching producer, Russ, makes a guest appearance! In the English World, there is often a sense of mystery, elusiveness, and aloofness surrounding poetry. Russ shares about an experience he had writing poetry in class. This leads to a conversation about the perceptions of poetry in school. Jamie, Natalie, and Rachel share about their own hesitations surrounding poetry and the poets that helped them move through those hang-ups.
Today at school, consider this: What are your assumptions and fears around poetry? How can you replace those poetry fears with playfulness and courage? Who is your spark poet?
