Retired-but-still-critically-thinking English teacher. Intrigued by words, birds, puzzles, animals, plants, people. Proud elder, Osage Nation. Proud 🔵, Oklahoma.
So blessed to have spent most of my life witnessing and leaning into this magic…

Used this poem for analysis in my AP English Literature class. Unabashedly proud to have been one of the "woke" educators our superintendent of education here in Oklahoma fears. Encouraged critical thinking, empathy, and respect for the power of words.

Enjoying it. A retired math teacher in her seventies (imagine that…that’s what caught my attention first…I forgave the math part) goes on an adventure. It’s framed by answering an email from a former student about what she's learned and unlearned. All sorts of math talk, but accessible:MathMagical!

Thank you, Dan McClellan, for shining a light on Walters’ true intentions with this stunt.

At one point, we even had a Bible as Literature course. He’s giving himself far too much credit for fixing a problem that doesn’t exist. And spending taxpayer money to buy Bibles that are tied to grift. Heartbreaking and infuriating.

It was never front and center as a symbol of control, never forced on anyone. We said the Pledge of Allegiance and had a moment of silence for contemplation, prayer, or just peace.
