I think actually the problem is that people teach “theme” incorrectly?

I have three kids and sometimes i think about what it would be like to teach and plan and grade with no kids 😂😭

Ha. Love Evil Dead 2. Don’t worry, I didn’t let the little guy see any of the upsetting stuff. But my husband similarly was traumatized by movies quite young and we can never decide if it was a good thing or a bad thing

It’s disgusting.

I’ve taught it several times to upper level students and it goes over VERY well.

The Only Good Indians. So much more than a horror novel.

I very much enjoyed it. And I’m sure there are some pulp references in there that I didn’t pick up on.

Have you seen The Lowdown? Some interesting Jim Thompson stuff in there …

It keeps me humble to know that even after over a decade of teaching there are still bad days!

Yeah around lunch I was like “okay, tomorrow is another day, we’ll just try again then” haha

I am starting a unit on the French and Haitian revolutions today so maybe that’s good timing

Yes!! That was where the brown paper came from, for sure
