Godley Elementary teacher to be featured on National Public Radio
Second grade teacher Ben Causey is being recognized nationally by the NPR radio show “A Way With Words”. Mr. Causey said, “I created a word last year (homoepistulaverbumphones) and sent it in to see if they’d be interested, and they are!” Mr. Causey created the new word homoepistulaverbumphones, which he defines as words that sound like their respective first letter – ex: queue, bee, Jay, etc… The interview will air either on Friday June 1, or Friday June 8. The show is called “A Way With Words”, and it’s on FM 90.1 KERA: Fridays at 1:00pm and Sundays at 2:00pm. Here’s the show’s website link: http://www.waywordradio.org/
We are very excited to have a teacher from GISD being recognized on a national radio show because he was interested in language and lexicography.
