On Thursday of last week we had our ELA Fieldwork for the Spring. Our 12th grade students went to go see an educational play called X: Or, Betty Shabazz vs. The Nation which was all about Malcolm X and his history. It focused on his later years in life and his death, with the conspiracy theories abounding. While I thought the play was interesting, yet not that engaging, the workshops afterward were more to my liking. Representatives from the play's educational staff came to our school and ran workshops with the kids based on the play and Malcolm X's life. It was wonderful to hear the students dig deeper into themselves to share their thoughts and experiences.
I know I've been slow. I apologize. Next week's photos will likely explain why.
