Episode Synopsis


A few lines of poetry can reveal so much about a student's interests, experiences and inner world. Imagine a classroom where poetry isn't just a side activity, but a cornerstone of learning and a tool for building community. Today, we hear from Georgia Heard, author of the brand new edition of Awakening the Heart and classroom teacher, Megan Sloan, about how they've used poetry to help them get to know their students and ignite a sense of belonging and community in the classroom. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
