In our conversation, Pernille discusses the reality that we won’t always be able to reach every student in precisely the ways we hope to. She recounts the bullying that her daughter experienced in third grade, and the incredible meeting with Pink that helped to breathe new confidence and optimism into her daughter’s outlook and self-identity. She defines the purpose that lies at the core of her legendary blogging activities, and articulates the political (non-partisan) nature of books that speak for the marginalized. Pernille also shares a couple of her keys to productivity and lists some of the voices and resources that have been shaping her thinking and inspiring her professional practice this year.
