Sharon D. Adinolfi
Sharon Adinolfi is currently teaching English, Drama, and Video to 9-12th Grade students at Quantico Middle High School in Quantico, Virginia. She is a graduate of Mary Washington College. Sharon believes that we must keep students engaged in their learning. She states, "We must compete for their attention and interest. It is no longer good enough to just lecture, read, and test. The students must be able to see practical applications for their learning. We can learn from our students. Students enjoy seeing their teachers as learners and enjoy teaching their teachers. We need to be open to the idea that we are all teachers and learners. The big desk is gone. Come out from behind the desk or lectern and dare to engage in the joy of learning with our students."
