For those who have spent any time with me, they know I have a story to
tell. No matter the situation, I've got a weird, funny, interesting (to
me), and crazy story to share. As I sit back and reflect on my lessons
and units, I always try to find the piece that made the students
engaged. Often, it's a silly story from my life or the lives of students
that rope students in.
I'm going to be starting our Gothic Unit in a couple of weeks and I love
to tell a good ghost story. Students love a good ghost story and they
are perfect to get kids hooked on this type of unit. I share some scary
stories from my personal experience and others I've heard over the years
and the class discusses how these stories share similar elements with
the ones we have read from Poe. I could have just written the Gothic
Story elements on the board, directed students to examples in the
stories we have read or are about to read and test them on these items
later in the unit. That is just awful.
