Love of Literature

I LOVE to read. I suppose that's why I am going into a career where I can talk about books all day long. My favorites range anywhere from a good Shakespeare comedy to a choppy Hemingway love and war novel. I love reading plays and being able to imagine what the sets and costumes would look like if I was director. I think that being completely consumed by another world whether it be a magical school for wizards or a 1920s farm house is the most fascinating thing I can do with my day. I can't wait to read with my students and dissects the methods an author uses to create these worlds. How do you feel about books???

High Schoolers vs Elementary Students

So, I need some serious insight into the passion to teach younger kids. I cannot imagine teaching that many small childern all day as a career and I think that those of you who take that route are Saints!!! Explain the attraction of working with little kids.

Importance of Drama Education

I think Drama is important because it teaches confidence in large groups as well as working as a community to support each other. I believe these are building blocks for kids for other subjects. What do you think??? Please be honest!!
