The Drip Torch is a catalyst for fire on the prairie. As an English teacher at Ames High School, I aspire to ignite the smoldering sense of wonder in my students, to alight their inherent desire to learn, to create, to communicate with style and panache. I hope our work together offers a light line, destroys dead wood, and primes the prairie for new growth.
Seniors are writing personal narratives this week, responding to prompts from the Common Application or college and scholarship applications of their choice. We are taking inspiration and stealing techniques from the writers we admire.
