This book, published in 1949, is eerily relevant today. I’m glad it’s one of the books chosen for the high school level 2026 America’s Battle of the Books.

just found a handout I used to use in #highschoolenglish classes… Why the Money Stopped by John K. Galbraith. Am walking toward the photocopier, but here’s the four main things he identifies as being seriously wrong in 1929….

Two years before Rabbi Rafael Grossman traveled to the USSR and met the little boy who became "Zev" in A VISIT TO MOSCOW, illustrated by Yevgenia Nayberg, he conducted a model Passover seder. The photograph of the model seder became an echo in the graphic novel.

Within a year of the events of A VISIT TO MOSCOW, the real-life family was permitted to immigrate to Israel, but this month in 1983, the Anti-Zionist Committee of the Soviet Public was formed in Moscow to combat Jewish emigration activities.

This week in #HighSchoolEnglish we’ve been coming in for a gentle semester landing with oral story-telling, Moth style.
Every day I’ve given a choice of prompts and students have 10 - 15 min to prepare their 2-5 minute story.
When the stage is trustfully set, the stories are tender little jewels.
Today is a day to read some Nikki Giovanni poetry in #HighSchoolEnglish class and just let allllllll the melancholy wash over me
Fridays we play games in #HighSchoolEnglish
Today I had ready a variety of short poems with blanks to fill in. This one, I thought, packed a bit of intriguing wallop!
No (xmas tree) is an island
(Abstract) of itself
Every man is a piece of (sharp corners)
A part of the (boxed reality)
this was a beautifully written & melancholic short story (in accessible, contemporary language) that my students thoroughly enjoyed
