Despite the complicated challenges of schools  they come to and remain in the profession inspired by a conviction that through education they can move individuals and society to a more promising future. In Teaching with Heart: Poetry that Speaks to the Courage to Teach a diverse group of ninety teachers describe the complex of emotions and experiences of the teaching life  joy  outrage  heartbreak  hope  commitment and dedication. Each heartfelt commentary is paired with a cherished poem selected by the teacher. The contributors represent a broad array of educators: K-12 teachers  principals  superintendents  college professors  as well as many non-traditional teachers. They range from first year teachers to mid-career veterans to those who have retired after decades in the classroom. They come from inner-city  suburban  charter and private schools. The teachers identified an eclectic collection of poems and poets from Emily Dickinson  to Richard Wright  to Mary Oliver to the rapper Tupac Shakur. It is a book by teachers and for all who teach. The book also includes a poignant Foreword by Parker J. Palmer (The Courage to Teach)  a stirring Introduction by Taylor Mali (What Teachers Make)  and a moving Afterword by Sarah Brown Wessling (Teaching Channel). Where Teaching with Fire honored and celebrated the work of teachers; Teaching with Heart salutes the tenacious and relentless optimism of teachers and their belief that despite the many challenges and obstacles of the teaching life  much is possible.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45953154547765,"sku":"ByrdShop_1118459431","price":21.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781118459430.jpg?v=1788179962","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/john-wiley-and-sons-teaching-with-heart-poetry-that-speaks-to-the-courage-to-teach-9781118459430","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
