glassblowing

i am now in mid october....where has time gone? i lurk...i wonder....i vote...waunder....and i lurk some more...and think of Mervyn Peake and "...the vastest things of are those we may not learn...."

absorb/reflect










I sat and watched a few teachers performing...some so simple in their approach and I wonder if sometimes engagement occurs inherently when learners are involved in a process of collaboration both with their peers and teachers? In classes where there is more teacher led 'work', the listeners can sink into their own thoughts. Drama is inherently a participatory subject....we need to shift our approach to make all the school curriculum more like a drama class.
