Welcome everyone to the Craft & Draft podcast! We are so excited to bring you what we love, talking with you about workshop, literacy, writing, reading, and real world teaching. 

Jacob and Pam love discussing topics provided by their listeners! 

In this episode, they are discussing times when teachers are required to use resources and programs that create moments of … well… “Not good teaching.”

Jacob and Pam talk about times when they have had to negotiate these types of situations, both as a teacher and as an administrator.

Pam shares how she is supplementing a required text book story with paired texts and writing responses during her present unit mandated by the curriculum.  Jacob shares how a teacher might approach the administrator or how to see why an administrator may support programs.

Join Jacob and Pam as they discuss how to navigate these difficult situations.  May you find a nugget to anchor your workshop.
