@kristenanniebell : Today’s teacher of #10featuredteachers is Josh from TN! Also in his photo is a Valentine’s Day card he made for his students when they were expecting a snow day but had school anyway! (So cute!) Here’s his story: “Hi! I’m Josh Vaden, and this is my seventh year teaching English at an urban high school in Springfield, TN. It’s also my alma mater! Literacy is a gateway for opportunity, and I want my kids not only to be good readers, but also see themselves represented in the lit they read. I would love to have a more unconventional library that features more than old, dead white men in the classical canon. Because of my school’s location, much of the population comes from poverty. I love these kids like my own, and I wish everyday that I could do more for them. It’s my wish to be able to help my kids see themselves represented in what they read in hopes that it becomes a bridge to them to build their literacy profile. I’d love any and all help I can get to see my kids succeed and thrive!” Josh’s wishlist will be in my bio all day so let’s get his students all the 📚they need! Thank you so much!!
