This writing assignment shows atudents' ability to analyze characters and their beliefs and motivations, from two pieces of literature, one being Camus' The Stranger, and the other a character from another book read in class during the year. Also, I show Dead Man Walking after a study of the book because of the existential traits of both Meursault and Matthew Poncelet, so students may choose him if they desire. This assignment reveals students' understanding of dialogue format,a necesssary writing skill. After students write their rough drafts, they bring them to class the next day for peer review, and then complete the final draft that night for homework.

TEACHING EXPERIENCE

Grades Taught:

Subject Area:

Creative Writing, English Language Arts, Journalism

Because one of my goals is to prove that studying literature, writing, vocabulary and grammar can be fun, I have created a number of innovative lessons for these strands of learning. So far, I have 143 products posted in my store. In March 2013, my book, The House of Comprehension, will be published by Compass, an imprint of Brigantine Media. Based on Common Core Standards, the program and accompanying activities with Teacher Notes encourages students to construct durable houses of comprehension by combining the study of the elements of literature with any text. Watch for notices about the availability of this book here, and on my website www.teachitwrite.com. Check out the book on http://conniecasserly.weebly.com. As for my products here, veteran teachers and those new to the field can utilize the hands on units and ideas for teaching while honing their skills on how to pace a lesson and to connect it to their state's standards of learning. I am a recently retired (2011) English teacher in the Fairfax County Virginia public school system, where I taught English 12, Journalism 1,2,3 & 4 and Creative Writing 1, 2, & 3. As a result of the Teacher Performance Evaluation instituted by the county, I was awarded the prestigious Career Two Exemplary level status three times. Besides the public high school venue, my teaching background includes an alternative secondary school for behaviorally disadvantaged adolescents, an adolescent psychiatric hospital, and a boys' reform school. Proud of my choice to be an educator, I have always hated the cliche, "Those that can, do; those that can't teach." Through my writing and my role modeling in the classroom, I show that not only do I teach, but I also practice what I preach.
