I am a teacher influencer interested in growing my consulting brand. I want to help teachers teach history & social studies better. I am an expert in engagment (check out History in the Kitchen & my podcast!), nonfiction reading strategies, classroom management, building and refining social studies & history courses, and diversifying social studies & history curriculum to tell a greater, more whole story. I would love to help market brands that could help teachers do their jobs more efficintly. Self-care for teachers is also something I believe in and push, as you can't pour from an empty cup!

The English department took students in a Harlem Renaissance field trip today to support their final unit of the year. We visited the @schomburgcenter , the Harlem YMCA, and the Harlem Meet among other sites. We read Langston Hughes’s poetry, listened to music, and felt the power of place. #historyteacher #historyteacher #historyteachersofinstagram #englishteacher #middleschoolteacher #teachersofinstagram

Teaching with food is my FAVORITE. What I planted will be ready for September. History, geography, culture, sustainability- it’s all here. Plus it tastes good! #garden #gardening #historyteacher #socialstudiesteacher #teachers #tomato
Frizzy hair, don’t care. Today I’m with the band! So proud of or MKA bands and chorus- they’re amazing artists! A little rain can’t dampen their spirits or the heart they put into their music! 🎶 #imwiththeband #teacherlife #hermionehair #teachersofig #sixflags
For #aapiheritagemonth I got to host a basic class on Hawaiian food. This is a sample of some of the simple traditional foods we learned about today (I’m making poi for them to try on Thursday). Food is a love language, so I always find it the most inviting way to start your learn. With our food lesson, we also learned a bit about language, geography, contact and colonization, and sustainability. It was a great day. Special thanks to the @bishopmuseum for the menu resource and for giving me the knowledge to be able to teach my NJ students about Hawaii after visiting! #historyteacher #historyteachersofinstagram #historyteachers #socialstudies #socialstudiesteacher #teachersofinstagram #middleschoolteacher
I didn’t come up with the idea for this worksheet but I’m grateful to whomever did! This is great for reading comprehension and critical thinking- both for student practice and my being able to assess where they are at any given moment without them having to write an essay! This is for my 5th grade, but can easily be adapted for older students ! #teachertips #socialstudies #history #historyteachersofinstagram #historyteachwr #middleschoolsocialstudiesteacher #elementaryteacher

Project Citizen is one of my favorite projects I have ever done in my classroom. The Center for Civic Education describes Project Citizen as “students will work together to research their community to discover problems and then identify solutions in the form of policy that require government involvement.” — and yes, it is that, but so much more. My students are managing their own class. They’re making anchor charts, calling government offices and organizations, creating policy they believe in, and wrestling with opposition and how to get people on board. They’re reading the Constitution, interpreting it, and looking at Supreme Court cases to help them navigate. They’re learning environmental science, negotiating skills, and civil dialogue. They are EMPOWERED and they care. Here’s just some of what they’re doing- and they’re not done yet! #teachersofig #instateacher #historyteacher #socialstudiesteacher #civicsteacher #civiced #civicsteacher
Last year I decided it was high time to use other sources in addition to the Declaration of Independence to explore what the Declaration has meant to different people at different periods of time. What to the Slave is the Fourth of July?” and the Declaration of Sentiments against the Declaration of Independence, and it was an eye-opening experience for students to see that there were numerous, varied responses to the Declaration over time. all men are created equal” didn’t apply to everyone, but reading real people’s responses and starting to empathize with their hurt and frustration helps them see this concept in a new way. This year, I also included a Declaration of Independence written by the Freedom School students of St. John’s Methodist Church in Palmer’s Crossing Mississippi in 1964.
In 2021, not only are we going to continue to feed our students’ minds to help them think critically, but we also need to feed their souls. The many iterations of school continue, but each one is definitely different than students experienced in September 2019 and has possibly changed several times between March 2020 and the present. I need to be more forgiving of myself and my shortcomings, I want to look out for others’ needs and find opportunities to help, and I want to make sure that my ears are open to hear others and my eyes are open to truly see them. They only have to share it with me unless they’d like to share it with others, then, rather than forget about their “one word,” I plan on asking them to take a look at it from time to time to see how they’re doing.
