Reflections From An "Educator Exemplar"

In this spoof characterization of a 30 year teacher (a teacher with one year's experience thirty times), Rhodeena Culsmucker (AKA Debbie Silver), expounds on her philosophy of education, "My way or the highway!" and laments her troubles with everyone in education including students, fellow teachers, support personnel, administrators, and of course, the parents. She is the antithesis of all the Debbie embodies as a teacher and loves to present a "rebuttal address" to Debbie's "Be A Teacher -- Be A Hero" speech. Laced with Rhodeena's comments about audience members, this stand-up comedy routine brings the house down! (It takes Debbie approximately 10 minutes to change into this "lovely" creature.) This routine can last from 15 to 35 minutes and can easily be included in any of the keynotes or workshop sessions without a costume change.
