------------------------------
Teaching Colleagues all:
Join us this Wednesday, May 20th at 7:00PM EDT for the 8th Folger Teacher Community Conversation. In answer to your requests:
● Together, we will all produce a *FOLGER TWENTY-MINUTE PLAY*--and you'll see immediately (a) why these are great learning tools, and (b) how you can do this with your students before Friday.
● PAIRED TEXTS--PART ONE
- What are paired texts and why are they important? - YOU pair up a speech of Lady Macbeth's with one from Rose (Fences), or a poem by Ada Limón, or a passage from The Yellow Wallpaper
● *PAIRED TEXTS--PART TWO*
- YOU consider this mind-blowing pairing: Citizen: An American Lyric by Claudia Rankine with Hamlet by William Shakespeare
● Lots of time to question, comment, learn from one another.
Cheers,
PO'B
