In partnership with the Ohio Council of Teachers of English Language Arts (OCTELA), we are releasing episodes from the Speaking and Listening podcast as part of our summer series!
In this episode, Noah interviews Smokey Daniels about his book The Curious Classroom! This discussion is all about inquiry work for the time-strapped teacher.
Here's where you can get yourself a copy of The Curious Classroom: https://www.heinemann.com/products/e08990.aspx
The Ohio Writing Project specializes in professional development for teachers. OWP does on-site PD with schools as well as virtual, hybrid, and in-person courses teachers can take for college + CEU credit.
The Ohio Writing Project also features a masters degree program for teachers through Miami University. Featuring the renowned “4-Week”, the OWP’s Masters of Arts in Teaching (MAT) program is both practical and transformational.

“Victim to Victor” by Heidi LaMarr
Victims of deadly
Violence of all kinds leads to
Voices shouting in the streets,
Vehement crowds coming together to sing,
Songs sung about the fight.
It
I’m proud of who I am today,
Woman, mother, daughter, teacher, friend,
Strong, brave, sensitive, unique
Not always right,
Not always wrong.
But always one
Who loves another.
Who fights for the weak with my words not my fists,
Who stands in support of those who feel invisible,
A victor.
