Captivated Classroom

Effective Tips, Resources, and Ideas for the Captivating Teacher

Books

Hi! My name is Raegan, and I am currently pursuing my Master's degree in English Literature while working as a graduate assistant with the Education department at the University of North Alabama. I am so excited to share my journey in education and hope that I can bring value to others in the process. A little bit about me is that I love funky eclectic decor, Goldendoodles, yoga, and all things literary. I started this blog for aspiring teachers like myself who want to learn, create, and grow as an educator. I hope my journey can inspire yours!

So (and I cannot stress this enough) ready for this semester to be over!! I’ll be working on a finals vlog for my channel this week to help me stay accountable. Too many projects and papers to mention, but I hope I get a second wind today and can get on top of everything. As soon as the semester is over, I will be in a full swing of reading and trying to upload reviews and such 💛 #elatoday #secondaryeducation #englishlanguagearts #finals #studygram

Today my early 20th century British literature class wrapped up Lady Chatterley’s Lover. I’m going to miss this scandalous novel 🤓 overall, I really enjoyed the complexity Lawrence writes concerning a divided class system, sexual ideals, disability, and capitalism to name a few. Definitely recommend.

“Do I dare to eat a peach?”
Fun notes on one of my favorite poems! T.S. Eliot’s “The Love Song of J.

To kickstart this account I want to feature my favorite YA book of all time: 𝘈𝘭𝘭 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘉𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘗𝘭𝘢𝘤𝘦𝘴 by @jenniferniven 💛 this book completely broke my heart in the best of ways. My senior quote from high school came from this book. “The thing I realize is, that it's not what you take, it’s what you leave.” This book left such an impact on me with it’s beautiful characters and storyline. I am inspired to one day leave my small sector of the world a little brighter.
