Fine, We Can Game-ify Reading (But No Gimmicks!) - BNT Team Meeting [Episode 275]
jeudi 20 novembre 2025 • Durée 29:01
Consider this your official invite to our Brave New Teaching team meeting! We’re catching you up on life, sharing what’s happening in our classrooms and libraries, and digging into why fun and whimsy are essential for bringing joy back to reading. We talk about the real challenges of getting students excited about books, our evolving thoughts on “gamifying” reading, and the gimmicks (or whimsy!) that actually work.

jeudi 3 juillet 2025 • Durée 53:47
It’s Amanda here, and if you’ve ever hit the road with a car full of kids (or just your teacher brain trying to stay five steps ahead) you know that summer travel takes some serious strategy. In this solo episode, I’m sharing all my favorite tips for stress-free, memory-filled road trips. From how I set up my car to the genius packing system that saves me from digging through suitcases at midnight, I’ve got you covered.
I’m also diving into the nerdy (but fun!) extras that make our trips even better—like our go-to museum memberships that get us into spots across the country for free or at a discount. Plus, I’m sharing my must-have travel apps, kid entertainment hacks, snack solutions, and everything else that’s helped us stay sane on the road. If you’re road-tripping this summer, this one’s for you!

180. THE ONE PAGER QUIZ: A FORMATIVE ASSESSMENT WALKTHROUGH
Saison 6
jeudi 30 novembre 2023 • Durée 13:43
We understand the importance (and challenge) of finding engaging and effective ways to assess student learning. That’s why we created a F-R–E-E masterclass that walks you through three formative assessments that will change the way you teach reading.
In this episode, you’ll hear a snipper of this masterclass, which focuses on the one pager quiz. Generally in the world of ELA, one pagers are thought of as a summative assessment. But in this training, we share how to use them as formative assessments.
One pager quizzes are just one of the changes that we’ve made in our classrooms that have positively impacted the way that our students interact with the content. You can check out the full free masterclass, Down With the Reading Quiz, here!
When you sign up for the masterclass, you’ll be sent a link right away to watch the training on your own time. You’ll also receive a workbook that you can print and take notes on. Be sure to share this episode and this masterclass with your teacher friends!

178. UNIT MAKEOVER: RHETORICAL ANALYSIS
Saison 6
jeudi 16 novembre 2023 • Durée 36:21
We’re excited to share another installment of our unit makeover series. This time we’re delving into teaching rhetoric analysis in the classroom. We’ve noticed a pattern in the feedback we receive from you, our listeners, and we’ve decided to structure this episode as a mini-professional development session for teaching rhetoric.
You’ll hear our two main approaches to teaching rhetoric: a focus on text or a focus on skills. A text-centered approach involves using a central text and supplementing it with other texts to teach the skills of rhetorical analysis. On the other hand, a skills-centered approach involves teaching students how to deconstruct arguments and analyze rhetoric without a specific central text.
We share plenty of examples for both approaches, which we hope will give you lots of ideas to take back to your students! Is this topic something that you would like to see a live training or workshop on? Let us know by sending us a message on Instagram @bravenewteaching!

177. THE ULTIMATE TEACHER-GROWTH PROGRAM: MODERN CLASSROOMS PROJECT
Saison 6
jeudi 9 novembre 2023 • Durée 47:45
Teaching and learning is not a one-size-fits-all, which is why we need to redesign our classrooms in order to meet the needs of all our students. Today’s guest will give you a dose of inspiration to help you thrive in today’s teaching climate.
Kareem Farah, co-founder of the Modern Classrooms Project, is a former teacher who recognized the need for a teaching model that meets the diverse needs of his students. Fueled by his desire to make a difference, Kareem and others developed an instructional approach that is now being scaled across the country…the blended self-paced mastery-based learning model.
You’ll hear Kareem talk about this learning model, how we can reengage our students, prioritizing small group and one-to-one settings, picking your battles as a teacher, opting into innovation, and more. We hope this episode empowers you to embrace new teaching methods of explore the possibilities of the modern classroom.

176. LESSON PLAN RESCUE: LITERARY TERMS
Saison 6
jeudi 2 novembre 2023 • Durée 33:39
Let’s paint a picture of a scenario that most of us have likely been in at one point or another. You have a list of literary terms that you want your students to learn. You’re teaching them over and over (and over) again.
You’ve given them the lists. You’ve played Kahoot and Jeopardy. You’ve done all the things, and yet, your students still can’t analyze literacy terms.
Sound familiar? Well, have you tried caring less and letting them cheat? We know it sounds crazy, but hear us out! It actually makes more sense than you think. In this episode, we’re here with a lesson plan rescue that will share several solutions for you to try in your classroom.

Saison 6
jeudi 19 octobre 2023 • Durée 27:39
We recently hosted a live training session with members of the Brave New Teaching community and let’s just say, it was pretty awesome! During this training, we focused on teaching and guiding students through the process of synthesis writing.

You’ll hear us talking through writing a prompt, using essential questions, and other things to keep in mind when you are crafting a prompt for a synthesis writing assignment. Plus, we give a couple of different options for outlining.
After listening, if you want to hear more, you can access the full training where we walk through some real-life examples of writing, sentence frames, helping our students understand how to synthesize, and more. Grab the full coaching session here!
