Lessons That Last
A teacher and a researcher talk about what it means to make a lasting impact on students' lives. Through stories people share about the teachers they remember, each episode explores what teachers say and do that sticks with students for years (maybe even decades). Using great teachers as models, we can all make a bigger impact on the people in our lives. New episodes are released every Sunday.

Lessons That Last
Poerty, Prose, and Being Human
April is National Poetry month, and we're kicking it off with a sweet story about the power of a poem. How do we help students appreciate poetry and understand the beauty of words? How do we help them see themselves as poets and authors? In this episode, Julie and Laura talk about incorporating poetry into any content. Jennifer's story about Mrs. Rosen is the focus of the episode, and it's a reminder of the importance of exposing students to many kinds of writing. If you've been thinking about how to bring poetry into your content, this episode is for you! And let's all write a poem about something we love!
You can find Jennifer's story (and all the stories we share on the pod) in the Lessons That Last book, It's available at your favorite bookseller. Check it out on Amazon here: https://bit.ly/3OiZr38
