I am looking forward to hosting another special interactive panel for students. This time focused on 9/11 and how it shaped this generation of young people.
How did 9/11 shape the generation that grew up in its aftermath? With New York Times journalists and student voices, we will discuss this question at our special interactive panel on Sept. 30.

We’re honored, and excited to see how educators around the world are using it — especially one so close to the source! Thank you, @TheAmandaGorman
Thank you so much for this @nytimes write-up on how to teach my work in the classroom. While she was with me in D.C., my mom, a middle school English teacher, was scrambling to finalize the lesson plan for her absent days. She was so happy to send this to the substitute!

I spent the day with 60 thoughtful, dedicated, and innovative educators from across the country. Day 1 of our inaugural #TeachingProjectNYT was a success! Feeling grateful to be a part of the @NYTimesLearning's team!
Teachers everywhere are stepping up to have difficult conversations about the protests, policing, and systemic racism. @NYTimesLearning published a collection of resources and activities to help students make sense of it all.
