Hi! I'm new to the forum, but I'm a long-time Stephen King fan. I'm a middle school Social Studies teacher in Millinocket, ME and this year the school is offering an elective course called Paranormal Studies. As a lover of all things paranormal, I'm ecstatic to be teaching 6th, 7th, and 8th graders about folklore, legends, and monsters every day, especially since we're only about an hour from the home of the most famous Mainer in history. I know he's very busy, but is there any way he could visit my classroom or I could bring my students to meet him somewhere in the Bangor area? This is the first time this class is being offered and I want to make sure that they'll want to offer it to students again next year. Any time between September and next June would be perfectly fine!
And since everyone here is a fan of horror and paranormal, I thought this might be a good opportunity to ask if anyone has any ideas for class lessons. I know a few things I'd like to do, but since this is a brand new class I have a lot of freedom in what I can teach (as long as it's appropriate for the age group!).
