Third block I was introducing "Young Goodman Brown." We were discussing all of the religious symbolism in the story. We were talking about the Garden of Eden and how humans were set up to eat from the Tree of Knowledge, specifically if God set humans up to fail. And if so, what does this reveal about God?
It was at this point that a student began rubbing her forehead and said, "Why do you always do this to us?"
"What's that?" I asked.
"You know . . . make us think all the time!"
My year is made!
I'll take that over any stellar results on fill in the bubble sheets any day!
