We have been "vacationing" for the past 3 days. I use the word loosely. It was more like a stay-cation. We tried to stay out of the office/ off computers and just did nothing. It was nice. For the past few years John and would go to the coast. But John wanted to stay home… Continue reading Developing an Attitude of Gratitude – Day 341, Day 342, Day 343, Day 344

Developing an Attitude of Gratitude – Day 337

Amen! I also survived my first official observation. I have never had someone watch my teach in a public school setting. I won't know how I did until tomorrow. That's when I meet the principle and she let's me know if I can keep doing what I am doing. Fingers crossed. I am grateful for… Continue reading Developing an Attitude of Gratitude – Day 337

Putting it Together – A Midsummer Night’s Dream

One afternoon, after a particularly busy day at the state Thespian Festival, my friend Jeff approached me and said he had signed us up to do something new. It was a crazy idea. Three schools, three casts, one show. I immediately said, "no!" He didn't listen. Thus began my journey with "Jeff's Wild Hair." There… Continue reading Putting it Together – A Midsummer Night’s Dream

Rocking the House with Schoolhouse Rock JR

Our spring Production Workshop project was Schoolhouse Rock Live JR. I love the spring production because students are involved from the beginning of the production process to the end of the process. Students are designers and decision makers from beginning to end. This was the first production we attempted having a student choreographer. She was… Continue reading Rocking the House with Schoolhouse Rock JR
