I am so lucky to have an amazing job at the best high school in the world with the most wonderful students (MOST of the time). Here I will share my musings, reflect on literature, and showcase cool assignments.
We were honored to have Sonja DuBois, Holocaust survivor, hidden child, spend the day with us on Thursday, April 3. Her story was compelling and moving and we so enjoyed getting to know her. She is pictured here with her husband, Ron.
Survivor of Sobibor
Pictured here are some of my students with Mr. Phillip Bialowitz, one of the ten living survivors of the Nazi extermination camp Sobibor. His son, Joe Bialowitz, is in the picture as well. It was an honor to hear Mr. Bialowitz speak.
I don't know if any of you in English II read this, but man... what a class you were! I felt kind of guilty at times because I could not quit laughing at your (immature!) actions! You all really did enjoy life (and each other... and me... and talking!) sooooo much! I appreciate your hard work (well, some of you, at least) and the laughs. You guys are nuts!!! Love ya!
