Let's try this again...

Wow. I am terrible. Pathetic. So, I've been experiencing some sort of writer's block for about 4 months now. But... I'm determined to overcome this dry spell of words about teaching.

Brief.. BRIEF update....

I'm currently teaching Elie Wiesel's memoir Night to my sophomores. They're engulfed by his poignant story. Enraged by the apathy and indifference of bystanders. Upset that the Allies didn't do more to stop the Nazis from carrying out their final solution plan. It's been an enlightening and moving experience for me.


My school put on a tragi-comedic (yes, comedic) performance of Othello last Friday. A sell out show, too! Let's just say it was a HIT. A number of my students last year had lead roles and they were fantastic. I can't wait to teach it again this spring.


More posts coming soon...
