  • November, 2019
    N​ CETA Notes November, 2019 Fall Conference Review NCETA hosted its Annual Fall Conference, Literacy in the 21st Century, Oct. 11-12 in Charlotte, NC. The ​ ​ conference opened with a screening of Truth Underground, a documentary about three spoken word ​ ​ poets, followed by a panel discussion featuring poet CJ Suitt and filmmaker Gerret Werner. On Saturday, session presenters shared strategies to amplify student voice in the classroom, create a culturally representative pedagogy, and foster creativity and collaboration in our students. Keynote speaker Donovan Livingston shared the importance of disrupting our practices as educators to keep students at the forefront of our classrooms. Our Outstanding Teachers NCETA recognized Dr. Kerry Martinez, kindergarten teacher at Hunter Elementary School in Raleigh, ​ ​ as its Outstanding Literacy Teacher at its 2019 Conference, honoring her passion, dedication, and insistence that “Literacy happens in all teachable moments throughout the day, providing students ​ 1 with the perspective that literacy enhances who they are as friends, thinkers, and learners,” in the words of her principal, Briana Pelton. Former Hunter PTA President Dr. Kelly Morris Roberts, in her nomination of Dr. Martinez, described how “Kerry has a knack for making those little wiggly pails, those vessels for learning that burst into ​ her door each day, just able to hold lots more and do lots more than they could when they entered in September.” Dr. Roberts further describes Dr. Martinez’s gift for building capacity in her students: In her firm, fair, and friendly way, she expects great things from each one of her students, and to hear her parents talk, she gets it.

    Bay Leaves number thirty-one 2005 President: Janice L. Sullivan Editor: Ed Cockrell Proofreader: David T. Manning Cover Illustration: Jane-Chilton Adams Prize-Winning Poems Sponsored by The Poetry Council of North Carolina Incorporated Copyright 2005 by The Poetry Council of North Carolina Incorporated Janice L. Sullivan, President Greensboro, NC Permission to use any of these poems must be obtained from the poet. The Poetry Council of North Carolina, Inc., holds first rights only. Other rights revert to the authors, who are asked to give credit to Bay Leaves when using the poems elsewhere. The Poetry Council, founded in 1949, promotes annual contests and secures notable writers and teachers as judges. Until 1997, meetings of the Council were held in Asheville. In that year, the Council estab- lished an official relationship with Catawba College in Salisbury as a permanent repository for PCNC materials and as a regular meeting place each fall to celebrate Poetry Day, which is sponsored by the Council. The Council does not have a general membership. 2 DEDICATION ally Buckner is a teacher, journalist, playwright, a S writer of fiction, non-fiction and poetry, a workshop leader and editor. If Sally Buckner’s only contribution to poetry in North Carolina was being the editor of Word and Witness: 100 Years of North Carolina Poetry that would be reason enough to honor her. Sponsored by the North Caro- lina Poetry Society and with a grant from the North Carolina Arts Council, Word and Witness is a celebration of North Carolina poetry. It outlines the ascendancy of our literary reputation, highlights the best poetry and poets in North Carolina during the 20th century and serves as a literary and educational resource for readers.
