I began working with the students at Fordham High School as a teaching artist through a partnership with Vital Theatre in Manhattan. We did workshops in design & stage craft that contributed to their annual production. The principal asked me to stay on for the remainder of the term to fill a vacant staff position as a permanent substitute teacher for the fine arts classes (grades 9-12) in 2008.

Storybook Dramatics
Storybook Dramatics was a class designed for younger children who are learning to read. Class time consisted of reading a storybook then using costume pieces, make-up, masks, props or hand puppets to help act out the dramatic action of the story. Often times I made masks or costume pieces for the class as well as pulled from Luna stock.
