English With Mrs. A: Educating While Getting Educated

[ABSTRACT ONLY; NO FULL TEXT] Between scrambling to piece together the all-star, standards-savvy curriculum, grading piles of papers, and attending more meetings than one can count, it's no wonder that teachers rarely have to time to pause and reflect on...well, anything! The purpose of this blog is to engage in meaningful discussions about what it means to be an instructor in the 21st century. I want to not only explore the ever-changing landscape of pedagogy, but to also highlight what our colleagues are doing, right next door in order to disseminate practical instructional strategies that are kid tested, teacher approved. While I will be writing from the perspective of a charter high school English teacher in Los Angeles, who has also worked in both public and private schools, I aim to incorporate some insight from teachers in other disciplines as well.
