Drama in the Classroom
Lit class has been working Steinbeck's "The Chrysanthemums" over yesterday and today. Today, Kilbridge got the 'evil' look, and commanded us to split up into groups and write a conversation between Henry and Elisa, and then read it aloud in front of the class.
I jumped to do so, and wound up sharing the reading with Howard (AKA "Duck" from my speech class). It was fun. I think our group had the best presentation and the best script; we got genuine admiring applause, rather than "You sucked as much as we're going to, and I'm glad you have the guts to go up there" applause, and not "Oh, my, that was funny" applause.
I'll eventually post the results, when Kilbridge gives them back.
