As students learn to lead into in-text direct citations, I’ve been referring to the Kool-Aid Man crashing through a wall: not introducing a quote is jarring, as if the Kool-Aid Man is bursting through your writing shouting “Oh yeah!!!!!” #ITeachELA #writing #EduSky

Don’t let it ruin you, Monte. It’s one way of seeing, and I’m sure there’s truth in there. But you’re a person who builds the community you want you see around you. That’s special. Keep that 💙

If you’d like to balance that those thoughts out, I recommend “The Light Eaters” by Zoe Schlanger. Specifically on page 27 I think or 127? There is a paragraph about plants communication and how that builds community… it’s stunning in its beauty. Ill see if I can find it and share

It was page 53, middle paragraph

I’ll have to read that book, but yeah… big sad feelings about schools as networks instead of community:(
