Hope everyone had a nice Christmas with the immediate family while staying safe. This pandemic has disrupted our lives in a way we would never have imagined. Let’s continue to protect ourselves and others as we head into the year 2022. God bless! ~~LMMolina

2021-2022 English 11 Advanced Level: Gothic Unit Activities (video)
I prepared and uploaded a brief video of some of the activities the class did with this theme on the gothic. I for one enjoyed the students’ projects. They created their topics to do their own research and later presented their findings to the rest of the class. I must say, I was impressed! But it might be only natural since this topic has always fascinated teens (and most adults, too!) We looked at Mary Shelly’s Frankenstein, Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Fall of the House of Usher,” and Bram Stoker’s “The Judge’s House.” The students voiced their opinions on that one and I uploaded their conversations to my podcast (Episode-52-Bram-Stoker-Discussions-on-The-Judges-House) That was a fun activity and they want to do something like that again so I’ll consider it for the next trimester. I wonder what other activities they can do to further their own learning? I’ll certainly give it some serious thought! ~~LMMolina
