When high school Latin teacher Steve Perkins was in 5th grade, he wrote a list about what he would do if he were to become a teacher someday. Keeping manila folders, not allowing comic books, no throwing paper wads and having a good sense of humor were some of the items on his Top 10 list. Thirty-five years later, Steve Perkins became the Indiana State Teacher of the Year and he shares with listeners how much the list he made as a 10 year old is still relevant in today's classroom. Despite what most people might think of Latin, Steve shares his passion for Latin with Anthony Arno and President Obama's reaction to what the name Obama means in Latin when spelled backwards. Each episode of The New Teacher Podcast also features The Final Period before the final bell, where guests share personal preferences during the final 60 seconds of the show.

(email me your favorite resource talkswithteachers@gmail.com) Segment I – Background and Inspiration Tell your story. Where are you from and how long have you been teaching? What classes have you taught? – Steve teaches Latin at North Central High School in Indianapolis. He's been there since 1998. He began his teaching career in Kansas City after getting his undergraduate degree from Indiana University. He went down to Texas for graduate school at the University of Texas in Classics studies but then moved back to Indiana in 1998 with his wife. Who has helped you in your journey to become a master teacher? – He has had many but he can point to four. Two were his Latin teachers when he was in high school. Tim Long, a Greek professor, at Indiana University was a mentor when Steve was an undergrad. Finally, his wife Melissa is the real teacher in the family. She has helped him see so many things about teaching. It is important for other teachers to know that we all have had setbacks in the classroom. Identify an instance in which you struggled as a teacher and explain what you learned from that experience. – He thought his idea of having students blog was going to be fantastic but writing on the web in another language proved difficult. Teachers need to know when something is not working and when to ditch it. Steve had success with blogs in another course, Theory of Knowledge, which is a part of the school's IB program, but it just didn't suit his Latin class. Why is literacy, and particularly, literacy in Latin important? – The study of Latin helps develop literacy. Students learn to develop good decoding skills. Study another language also foster the ability to see another culture and allows students to bring their culture to another language. What is one thing that you love about the classroom? – The creativity and curiosity in the classroom. He describes teaching as that shared journey to discovery. The subtitle of his website is "antiquity never gets old" and he hopes that learning never gets old with him and his students. Segment II — Digging into the Teacher Bag of Goodies What book do you recommend to a developing teacher? -- Steve loves the classics so he reaches back to the 16th century with Montaigne and his essay "On the Education of Children." In it, he states that "the mark of a strong and lofty soul knows how to come down to a child's gait and guide it." Another work that has proved helpful has been by George Steiner, his book Lessons of the Masters (Charles Eliot Norton Lectures; 2001-2002). What is one thing a teacher can do outside the classroom that can pay off inside the classroom? -- Keep the fascination with one's own discipline. He loves classics and not only has that not waned over the years, it has increased.
