Wondering if anyone has performed this piece? If so, do you have a video of it that could be used for instructional ...

She has to be able to gradually move toward a total nervous break down - high school students have to work really hard to get here. There is also ...

This is interesting. I've done Play On - twice. Each time I paid royalties for 2 performances and if I remember correctly they were minimal costs. I can look in my records if you want me too.

I am National Board Certified - in English - but I've served on committees as they tweak the expectations of various subject areas. I think they are all doable, but they do take time and a lot of effort. However, I can honestly say I've become more aware of how and what I teach since I've been certified. ...

I've never dealt with EF for tours but we just went to Italy over spring break with Explorica. It was exptremely well organized and the guide was very knowledgeable and even went out of his way to show us things that weren't included on our tour. I know it was European and someone said they had to be ...

The table coverings are available from the ITS store. It took me a while to fine them because the search doesn't come up with table cloth and I can't remember what it was. They are a little pricey. Total cost was $111.00. I'll keep looking to see if I can find it again. They are well constructed and ...
