It's especially fun to be an English teacher when you're reading a book that you really like personally, and that the students don't totally understand on their own.
That way, they NEED you a little bit. And you get to dork out about symbolism and motifs and the beauty of the language.
I'm reading of two of these books right now: Their Eyes Were Watching God and Macbeth. One with American Lit and one with the sophs. This video is about that. Next, I think Rachel should make a video wherein she demonstrates her Shakespeare arm flourishes and talks about the "rhythmic nature of the relationship" between Hermia and Lysander.
