Propp’s Propaganda

I am forever thankful to my former principal / asst. super. for having our district trained in Thoughtful Classroom.  The other day I did an activity and it really went well.  Of course I tweeked what I learned into what I needed but it still went really well.  I am serious, a great class, in my case 84 minutes!, is a natural high!  What made it even better was I am teaching a new play right now that I usually teach with my honors class. I am finding my regular students are engrossed in the story line and so far have been able to verbalize the deeper themes this play provides.  It is such a powerful feeling to hear my students intelligently discuss literature!
