Teaching Demo

Great job connecting literature to worldly events. I would like to simplify the list and use it in my first grade classroom.

Marlene,
Your presentation reminds me how much can be learned from a single reading experience. I myself use War with Grandpa as the basis for a writing prompt where students plan a new attack for Peter (better not let the conflict management people hear about this). The debate portion of your unit excites me and I can hardly wait to try it next year. What great ties for all areas of the curriculum. Good job today.

Marlene's teaching demo rocked. I have a full page of notes of adaptations I'm taking back to my senior high school students next fall.

Marlene, you are an inspiration. Thank you for your dedication; you are changing the world one child at a time.
