Teach Me, Teacher

Teach Me, Teacher


#138 GUNS ft. @TeachingSavesLives (pt.1)

November 17, 2019

With the seemingly endless gun violence plaguing our schools in America, both physically and mentally, it's time we have an honest talk about the toll this is taking on teachers and students.

This is not a political discussion. This is not a right versus left. This is not an episode where two teachers have a biased talk.

This is an honest conversation between Emily from @teachingsaveslives on Instagram, and myself, about how gun violence is affecting our school cultures, our students minds, and the wellbeing of America as a whole.

We welcome you to listen and provide your insight, but we do not welcome partisan and inflammatory language. This issue is bigger than any party or political ideology. This issue—this epidemic—is about our students and our communities. 

 

 

But before you go off and listen, consider supporting the podcast by grabbing a copy of Teach Me, Teacher, Life Lessons that Taught Me How to be a Better Teacher. Written in celebration of teachers and the power of education, Teach Me, Teacher affirms that you have the power to save a life. If you need to remember your why, or gain insight into the mind of a child who endured trauma at home, and how school saved him (me), this is the book for you.
