Kevin Sylvester joins host Beth Lyons to talk all about his work as a kids lit author/illustrator and the challenges of writing such a variety of genres and styles. Kevin shares his love of visual texts such as Spiderman Comics and graphic novels and discusses why it’s such an important genre for kids (and adults!) to explore. The conversation takes its first (of many) tangents to explore the idea of what actually is “middle grade” fiction and should books be sorted for readers using these arbitrary categories? Beth invited Kevin mostly to talk about his newest book, Apartment 713, which is a love story to community and stories that are held within the structures of a community. Beth and Kevin discuss the inspiration for the Regency (the main building that acts as a character within the story), time travel and historical fiction as a tricky genre for kids, and the cast of eccentric secondary/tertiary characters. WARNING! The conversation meanders for a bit as Kevin and Beth follow a tangent about sports stories and sports fandoms in general! Grab a copy of Apartment 713 and take time to check out the dedication at the beginning of Apartment 713…Who helped make you the reader you are today?

The discussion starts with looking at what is a multilingual learner and the transition to MLL from ELL -asset based terminology. Kimiko helps to define what ESL means in the context of a classroom, STEPs to language proficiency, collaboration between classroom and MLL staff, and accommodations vs modifications. The question of how classroom culture impacts MLLs and their ability to adapt to new surroundings is explored in the context of language-friendly schools and working from an asset-based not deficit based lens. Kimiko shares her thoughts about the role school library professionals play in supporting both educators and learners including: inclusion-who do we represent?

The conversation continues by looking at how we can embed current events, identity, making connections and stories into our learning with students. The importance of consistently valuing, appreciating, honouring, and connecting to the lived experience of students and the school community in order to learn from and validate the stories of the students we have the privilege to work with each day. How are we working with students to build their capacity to not only understand the visual stories they are bombarded with each day but to tell their story through pictures and images? How can we differentiate the modes in which we ask students to tell their stories- whether that’s the story of how they communicate their understanding of math or a narrative? The discussion shifts to looking at multimodal ways to capture student’s understanding beyond pencil and paper and whether the consistency of working for a length of time in one grade or the experience of changing grades/allocations has helped us on our own learning journey as educators. The discussion ends off with sharing our love for audiobooks and brings the conversation full circle with Part 1 where we discussed oral storytelling.

Teacher-librarian Lisa Lewis joins Alanna to speak with author Christy Jordan-Fenton and Margaret Pokiak-Fenton (Olemaun) about the impact of their book on tackling the tough topic of Canada’s history of residential schools and the legacy of this cultural trauma. This unique memoir of the Inuvialuit experience is a must-read for middle grade audiences.

Lisa uses Fatty Legs with her intergenerational book club and speaks about the power of unpacking trauma with middle grade students. Christy mentions how Fatty Legs is also resonating with new Canadians and adapting to new cultures. Christy also refers to the cross-cultural connections of global history including war's effect on human migration, the Japanese treatment of Korean people. Lisa emphasizes how the impact of migration on family culture really resonates with her students and their families.

During the episode Beth, Pav and Chey discuss the intertwined literacies of listening, speaking, sketchnoting and reading, curating articles and texts that connect and push pedagogy forward and the experience of curating a playlist in relation to theme each week for their live radio show hosted on VoicEd Radio.

Chey and Pav reflect on their use of podcasting with students in the classroom as an organic experience that grew out of a Genius Hour project and the changes that might take place if podcasting were more intentionally embedded through the inquiry process.

We start to explore the abandoned places that are explored in the novel, and the technology objects that are left behind. We talk about Ai Weiwei’s work as a protest against Chinese nationalist policies and how he plays with value of objects, the same way Mandel is. We talk a lot about how children and families fit into the pandemic and the conditions that we’re experiencing, that are emphasized in the novel.

We talk about the power of cultural artifacts to transform us back to moments of impact where we were called to action or to think in a different way.
