    A Visit with the Authors of Wondrous Words: Reimagining Writers and Writing in the Elementary Classroom

    NWP Radio sits down with Katie Wood Ray and Stella Villalba to discuss the new edition of Wondrous Words, Katie's landmark 1999 book on responsive writing instruction. Twenty-five years later, the authors explore how teaching has changed—and why their message about writer agency, teacher decision-making, and the joy of teaching is more urgent than ever. In an era of mandated curricula and scripted lessons, they argue for a pedagogy of listening and kidwatching that treats students as writers making real choices, not just students completing assignments.

    Pushing Back Against Slow Violence in Traditional English Curriculum

    NWP Radio visits with Jessica Rubin, author of "Embracing gentle resistance to the slow violence of traditional English curriculum." The article explains how a secondary English teacher, Kristen, maintained a commitment to nonviolence in her teaching through "gentle resistance" to the subtle violences embedded in her school's curriculum and practices. By making purposeful, small-scale changes over time—such as omitting certain texts, reordering content, and elevating student voices—Kristen was able to push back against the slow violence of traditional English instruction without risking her job or professional relationships.
