Most ela teachers feel like they don't have enough time to get everything done that they need to get done. That's why every podcast episode of the Teaching ELA Podcast has a goal to get you something you can use right now, tomorrow, or a week from next Tuesday. That means you can leave on time today and still have a great lesson for tomorrow.Welcome to the Teaching ELA podcast where I help ELA teachers thrive in and out of the classroom. In this podcast I discuss real teaching for real classrooms--whether it’s lesson plans and lesson ideas for a specific piece of literature, a teaching strategy or life strategy, I talk about things ELA teachers need. My promise is that with each episode you'll have an ELA lesson plan or teaching strategy you can use right now and in the days to come. No more fruitless searches for short story lesson plans, novel lesson plans, poetry lesson plans, or writing lesson plans. They're all right here on the Teaching ELA Podcast.
