E2E Bards Against Humanity: A Game of Shakespearean Insults
If your students think Shakespeare is snooty and dry, this is your chance to set them straight. My summer school kids said this was so fun they would even play it outside of school without being forced by a teacher. My colleagues (who are dorky English teachers) have proclaimed that this is a fun game for our adult-beverage nights out. It’s like Cards Against Humanity, but with scenarios where someone deserves to be insulted. Coworker called in "sick" again, so you're stuck pulling a double shif

Teaching style
I don't talk down to kids and balance treating them like young adults with setting firm boundaries and expectations. I'm not a fly by the seat of my pants sort of teacher; I create a very structured setting to meet expressed student need.
Awards & shining teacher moments
My colleagues said I was the least-obnoxious of the special service providers when I worked in SPED. That's like an award, right...?

Additional biographical information
You know what I really dislike? Going to staff development, workshops, or symposiums where all the presenters do is jabber in sweeping generalities without ever telling me HOW to accomplish the lofty ideals being espoused. Okay, I actually hate that (dislike is an understatement).
That's why I have sought to write materials that lead teachers, step by step, through the process of meeting students' ELA and SECD needs. You know that box you have to check on an IEP? The one that says how many "minutes of instruction" you'll give the kid or how you'll help the kid meet his goal? My materials actually help you DO that...not just talk about it.
