When messaging students and receiving messages it is very important that those communications be as transparent as possible. Many teachers have lost their jobs due to messaging. I recommend that parents and at least one administrator or staff member be included in the group messaging platform you use. ...

I have a couple of favorite Murder Mysteries: Wait Until Dark - an intense drama, with a very tense cat and mouse fight scene. Great role for a strong female actress. This is not a show for the faint of heart. Exit the Body - a fun murder farce, good roles for females ------------------------------ ...

How wonderful that your city recognizes your abilities! Congratulations! Improv workshops are a wonderful idea, they are fun and the activities really help kids to forget about the "performance" and enjoy working together and watching each other. Once they have gotten into the comfort zone of being ...

Hi Emily, Building a Musical Theatre program is difficult. Our program has no feeder programs from the elementary or middle school levels so we are the first experience with Musical Theatre for our students, which means we have a lot of skill building to do with every musical. My suggestion is to ...

Hi, One thing I would do is approach the class with a discussion of why theatre/drama is important to them on a personal level. I start my class with a powerpoint about the life/job related skills that drama class provides the student. I share the fact that many corporations now bring in improv ...

Use of a safety contract is a great idea:) Be fair to yourself, though....you can not be all places...at all times. Nor can any teacher of any subject or coaches. Kids will have accidents or do stupid things! We can try to out think them and prevent them from doing these things, but sometimes it just ...

Ohhhhhhh this is a tough one! This happens to all of us on occasion, and it sucks! Will you have a new group of students next semester?
