I love to challenge students with well-crafted extended thinking questions and literary analysis assignments that maximize what students take away from reading a text. But in addition to that, I'm always on a mission to get students excited about reading literature in the first place. I try to create thought-provoking anticipation guides and fun intro activities that engage students' attention in the pre-reading phase too!
Awards & shining teacher moments
Experiences I loved most as a teacher:
• Serving as the advisor for the students who produced the annual literary magazine
• Getting even the most reluctant students excited about the mysteries of Macbeth
• Seeing students design their own contemporary monsters as part of our Beowulf unit
• Laughing through our class performances of The Importance of Being Earnest!
