Introduction

My name is Erica Lustig.  I came to teaching from a career as a lawyer and  am very enthusiastic about what I do.  I have been teaching at Frontier Junior High School for six years now.  I have taught a wide variety of topics including Art, Leadership, Com. Arts, and American Social Studies.  This year I will be teaching Washington State History/Ancient Civilizations and Theater.  I am very excited about teaching these subjects because I have a great love for all of them.

Washington State History Objectives:

 

My objective for this course is to introduce students to the amazing story of the state they live in and what it means to be a citizen of this state. My hope is that by understanding their past, students will become citizens who want to participate in the shaping of future Washington State's future. The study of history is also a great way to develop critical thinking skills because of all of its cross curricular applications. Combine thinking skills with the ability to read and write well and there is nothing your child cannot accomplish in the future.

Theater Objectives:

My objectives for this course are to help my students discover their creativity and develop their presentation and public speaking skills.  I hope it will be a fun course where students can express themselves, use their imaginations, and become more confident. The course will also have cross curricular connections with Communication Arts and Social Studies.
