Welcome to Talking Back to the Teacher Podcast
Season 3 Episode 60:
Trig’s Trajectory w/Erica L.
My guest this episode is Erica. I used to call her Trigger,aka Trig for short. Sometimes students earn nicknames and you just ride with them for a bit. Well, I have been riding this one for 15 years now. I used to say she would trigger a new level of anger in me at times, or even her nickname of Michigan would trigger me, naturally because I am an Ohio State fan. But it's all love. We met her senior year in Florida, and she was a solid athlete in Michigan, and then came back down to Florida for a while and finished high school here.
So our journey began in Portable 3 in my Algebra II class and it has morphed into what where we are now. Two adults who serve children in their own capacity. My population is juniors and seniors in high school. Her population is students with autism and she is absolutely phenomenal.
We discuss the privilege athletes have in high school, what happens when you get caught in a big fat lie in my class,choosing adoption as a wonderful option for children, life, marriage, faith and more.
