“Yellow” by Dana Holley Maloney

I remember it first, before circumstance, / mother, house or sky–the unexpected / brilliance burned to the back of retinas.

“At that moment the (subversive) power of reading made itself clear and real to me. If I could see the words, then no one could control them or what I got from them.” #NCTE25 keynote with Percival Everett

Good morning, #NCTE25 attendees! I'll be presenting TWICE today. Please join me! G.6 at 12:30 on why and how we should teach poetry reading. . . and J.10 at 3:30 on AI-proof writing assignments. Both in room 303! I have lots to share!

Something I'm thinking about saying at my NCTE talk later this week: We should focus on teaching writing, not automation-assisted document production.

What do topic modeling, lack, Taylor Swift, oversized sunglasses, and Louis Althusser all have in common? They’re all key ingredients in @scottstorm.bsky.social’s and I’s #NCTE25 workshop on Theory, Theorists, & Theorizing! Come join us on Saturday at @ncte.org. #literacies

Hey, #NCTE25 attendees. Want to focus on teaching poetry? Come to G.6 at 12:30pm on Friday afternoon. I will go first and will share "Reading as Necessary Dreaming: Nurturing Creative Thinking & Change via Reading of Poetry."

#NCTE25 attendees: Let's dig into AI-proof writing assignments! Come to J.10 on Friday afternoon at 3:30pm. I will present first.

Hope to see you at one (or both!) of these sessions in Denver. #NCTE25

Hope to see you in Denver! I will present on reading poetry and on AI-proof writing. Both presentations Fri afternoon.

Fun prompt: dreaming up proposal ideas about dreaming. After #ncte24, what would you like to see at #ncte25 and/or what are you dreaming up? Thank you, @anterobot.bsky.social, incl for the inspiring design! convention.ncte.org/cfp/

I'm thinking about how "possibility" is definitely a fairer place to dwell right now--as a healthy mindset and more. Replace "prose" with whatever words spring to mind at this moment. #poetry #ncte25 #ncte24

Feeling GRATEFUL for #NCTE24. As we look ahead to #NCTE25, I am thinking that "RADICAL OPTIMISM" might be an interesting mindset to adopt as a form of resistance, self-care, and more. Yes, let's DREAM and make those dreams come true. Already looking forward to your sessions!

At #NCTE24, some of us had the great pleasure to see & to hear both Tracy K. Smith & Ada Limon. Both poet laureates spoke about Emily Dickinson & her influence on them. As we move toward the next year also toward #NCTE25, let's remember Dickinson's words that we CAN "dwell in possibility."

Here she is. #NCTE24

My poster is pretty, AND I have some things to share--reading lenses, writing frames, students enacting change. Please stop by today 2:45-4pm in the Exhibit Hall! #NCTE24

Hope to share you! #NCTE24

I suppose everyone knows to pack rain gear for #NCTE24?
