Interested in making a group that focuses on how to bring different forms of media into the classroom (Film, Music & Podcasts) with a focus on analyzing this media with a critical eye. The ideas is we would choose some texts to focus on (book club style: everyone listens to a podcast... reads a book on teaching film analysis, etc) We read these for ourselves, discuss the skills together, and then plan how we would transfer these to the classroom and run activities for the students!

As such, I would like to pursue learning in drama rehearsal processes and techniques in order to facilitate deeper engagement and learning in drama classes.

Norm and I are going to be continuing to see how we can use EcoSchools to help us drive green initiatives at the school. We also want to organize educational events/workshops led by students and staff and also re-think how we use/divert/reduce our resources so that we can shrink our footprint with the ultimate goal of creating a culture of sustainability at the school. Come join us if you're interested. Good luck everyone!
