A speech of ignorance followed by one of the most powerful speeches I’ve heard in a long time. The Gov. of MD will have this speech taught in many classrooms. #APLang
Today's response by the PM to increased tariffs is a good one for the #APLang rhetorical analysis file.
Purpose, audience, key language choices (what connotations are generated by "the Canadian government is disappointed"?) -- some interesting stuff to work with.
I was not feeling excited for the new school year until I recieved two emails from previous students sharing how excited they were to have me as their AP Language and Composition teacher this year! Now I'm ready! #APLang #APTeacher

Career win: my AP Language and Composition students outperformed the state and global averages 🤌🏻💋

Hot take as a long-time AP Lang and Comp teacher: AP Language and Composition isn’t really about language at all. If it was, kids would be learning about language change and variation, descriptivism, pragmatics, syntax—the actual study of language. #Collegeboard #APLang

Sad! I live near #DC. My #APLang Ss went on a field trip today to visit the Museum of Women's History for their DE US Hist class & I jokingly made a comment this week that they should go now before POTUS shuts it down for focusing only on women. Exec order:

My AP Lang kids are deep into their rhetorical analysis lyric posters, and the vibe is immaculate—orchestra hip-hop playing, everyone locked in and focused. 🔥🎶 #APLang #RhetoricalAnalysis

#aplang teachers: This would be excellent for RA. Short, accessible, timely. This is a Lit year for me but I will definitely be using this in the fall!
Photo of prompt/feedback sheet for AP English assignment. The prompt asks students to either a) operate like Deborah Tannen, shifting in and out of narrative and commentary to make an argument, or b) write ironically and hyperbolically, like Jonathan Swift, and adopt a persona while still clearly developing their own effective argument
A photo of a student’s last pragraph, driving home the satire. “Sure certain things were invented by accident, like penicillin, X-rays, and super glue…. But perfection matters the most, right? Someone was bound to come up with that sooner or later anyways. And that’s not what they were programmed to do in the first place. They couldn’t complete the task they were meaning to do and instead did something else. That’s too human. That’s too faulty.”
Some of the best, most interesting, most engaged writing in the AP Lang classroom is coming when I explicitly lower the stakes and encourage experimentation. The next step: how do we do all that cool shit even in more serious high stakes work? #iteachela #ela #aplang
Dear #aplang readers: i modelled how to use interwebz memes as hooks and evidence in class today. Sorry not sorry.
