<span>Dear educators, mentors, and friends from my time at UPenn,</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
<span style="white-space:pre-wrap"></span>I will be leading a symposium at the <a href="http://www.aera.net/admin/2014annualmeetingtheme/tabid/14871/default.aspx" target="_blank">American Educational Research Association (AERA)</a> conference
 in Philadelphia, PA on <span tabindex="0" class=""><span class="">Sunday, April 6</span></span>, from <span tabindex="0" class=""><span class="">10:35am</span></span> to <span tabindex="0" class=""><span class="">12:05pm</span></span>, entitled
 Labovian Legacies: Symposium on Linguistics and Education in the 
Philadelphia Convention Center, 200 Level, 204C. John Rickford, John 
Baugh, Christine Mallinson, and Jeff Reaser will
 also be participating. I'd love to see some of you there and please 
spread the word to any students who may be interested in attending.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:0.5in"><span>Also, I'm happy to 
announce that the book that I have co-authored with Christine Mallinson 
of the University of Maryland Baltimore
 County, <i>We Do Language: English Language Variation in the Secondary English Classroom,
</i>is in print. The book is available on Kindle and in paperback on <a href="http://Amazon.com" target="_blank">

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:0.5in"><span> </span><i><span style>We
 Do Language</span></i><span style>, a follow-up text to our first 
book, examines the need to integrate linguistically informed teaching 
into the secondary English
 classroom. The book meets three critical goals for preparing English 
educators to ensure the academic success of their students. First, the 
book helps educators acquire a greater knowledge of language variation 
so they may teach their students to analyze the
 social, cultural, and linguistic dimensions of the texts they read in 
class. Second, the chapters provide specific information about language 
varieties that students bring with them to school so that educators can 
better assist students in developing the literacy
 skills necessary for the Common Core State Standards. Third, the text 
empowers educators to build their linguistic awareness so they may more 
fully understand, respect, and meet the needs of culturally and 
linguistically diverse students. Our book features
 concrete strategies, models, and vignettes, as well as classroom 
materials developed by English educators for English educators.
</span><span>With a foreword by Jacqueline Jones Royster and 
endorsements by Shirley Brice Heath and Donna Ford, we are especially 
happy to have so many excellent educators and linguists
 support our efforts.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <span style="white-space:pre-wrap"> </span>
<span>Drafts of our book have successfully been used in graduate 
and undergraduate classes as diverse as: African American English, 
American English, Dialectology,
</span>Assessment and Evaluation of Reading and Language Development, <span>
Counselor Education for Diverse Populations, Language Attitudes, 
Language in Diverse Schools and Communities, Language in Society, and 
Language Variation and Education. If you need advance information about 
the book for course planning/preparation, please let
