Open Source Shakespeare: search Shakespeares works, read the texts 55 Thoughts for English Teachers All of a sudden, I have been teaching public school English for a decade. Why am I surprised? I never thought I would be a high school teacher. I never took education courses. Only now am I beginning to reconcile my different professional selves: teacher, adjunct professor, and writer. For years I avoided writing about my full-time profession. I didn’t avoid writing about teaching because I was ashamed of my profession, though I am aware that save for a handful of other teacher-writers scattered around the country, the majority of my literary peers work in higher education or publishing. There are few professions more confusing, or misrepresented, than high school teaching. I hesitate to call what follows “advice,” though it might seem as such. 1.You need to love words. 2.Students can sense a lot of things. 3.Do not confuse reading passions with reading biases. 4.Speaking of poetry: they will hate the idea of it, but they already love and live the soul of it. 5. 17.You need to be awake.

Quotes about Art, Sayings for Artists Related Quotes Being Yourself Imagination Inner Child Music Reality Every artist dips his brush in his own soul, and paints his own nature into his pictures. ~Henry Ward Beecher Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Painting is just another way of keeping a diary. Art is the only way to run away without leaving home. The aim of every artist is to arrest motion, which is life, by artificial means and hold it fixed so that a hundred years later, when a stranger looks at it, it moves again since it is life. Every child is an artist. Life beats down and crushes the soul and art reminds you that you have one. Painting is silent poetry. Painting is poetry that is seen rather than felt, and poetry is painting that is felt rather than seen. It has been said that art is a tryst, for in the joy of it maker and beholder meet. Art is the desire of a man to express himself, to record the reactions of his personality to the world he lives in. We all know that Art is not truth.
Creating and Managing a Classroom Library The end of my fifth year of teaching is fast approaching (June 12th!) which means it’s time to reflect, relax, and read. It’s also that time of year when I’m keeping my fingers crossed that I get all (or most) of my books back and realize how much more my library has grown. A week or so ago one of my Twitter followers suggested that I write a post about how I manage my class library which really made the wheels start turning. I want to note that I am by no means some kind of classroom library expert (if there is such a thing), nor do I think my way of doing things is the best. Background: I decided to create a class library when I took my college Young Adult Lit class. My library before my first day of teaching. Creating Your Library and Spending: I’ll admit, creating and managing a class library can be expensive. Another way to add books to your classroom library is to let students know that they can donate their books. Student donated book label. Organization: My graphic novels shelf
