Wisely and slow; they stumble that run fast

Today marks the one year anniversary of my Epic Romeo and Juliet Project. I think of this project often and I have watched the movie the students completed a few times since the premiere. It is still the best project I have ever worked on and couldn't be prouder of the impact it has had on my students.

I love the fact that I will be able to see these students grow up and we will always have this project to share. It something special that my students and I will share and that makes me smile.

The title of the post is a quote from the Friar as he advises Romeo. It is something that sticks out to me when I think about the planning that went in to this project and other projects. It is solid advice for all teachers planning on creating their dream lesson.

Like I said at the end of the project, I encourage all of you out there to go after your dream project and make it happen.

Have a great day everyone!
