Tired of superficial resources on the Harlem Renaissance that just go through the motions when it comes to adding diversity to your plans? So often, in an attempt to study more than dead white males, teachers seek out texts by people of color. But lacking the time or energy to really engage in the research required to plan a great unit, they incorporate a few lackluster biographies and add some short pieces to their plans and leave it at that. The addition of those inane powerpoints, superficial

Want your students to learn about people who have found success through their willingness to work hard and learn from their failures?

Are struggling to teach a unit on Night that is both rigorous and engaging? If your students’ experience of Elie Wiesel’s classic novel involves filling out meaningless worksheets, sitting silently while you give powerpoint lectures, or waiting for you to explain the novel to them, you’re doing them a great disservice. You're encouraging them to accept your answers rather than seeking them out themselves. In fact, by giving your classes the message that their ideas don't matter, you're helping

Want to empower your students to take charge of their own educations? So many short story resources involve nothing more than checking boxes or filling out pages of meaningless worksheets. This kind of busywork might seem convenient, but it doesn’t teach students any skills that they need. In fact, when students are lead to believe that reading literature means answering pages of meaningless questions, they are taught to see English class as a boring chore and to hate reading of any kind.

Tired of students groaning and rolling their eyes whenever they hear the word “poetry”? You can’t really be surprised they act this way when they’ve been lead to believe that reading poetry means trying to figure out some inane, irrelevant puzzle. And when they’ve only experienced poetry written by old white men who died one hundred years ago, it’s no wonder that they are bored out of their minds.

Ready to integrate more Native voices into your curriculum this year?  While trickster tales, creation myths, and other traditional stories definitely have their place in an American literature curriculum, it’s important that your students don’t get the message that Indigenous literature is only something from the past or something to read about in their history books. In fact, if you’re not intentionally integrating current writers in your plans, you might be inadvertently giving your classes t
