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

After 8 days in the new school year, Pam and Jacob are experiencing what they experience most years—resistor students. These students often avoid reading and writing in a variety of ways. Sometimes they do so silently and with a look of participating, while other times they are outright hostile to the process.

Pam and Jacob go into a long discussion about why students do this and how they handle the often tough moments with love, compassion, and a trust in the process.

This episode also features several comments and questions responded to and answered submitted by listeners of the show! Listen and see if yours was selected!
