I have been teaching English at Woodsville High School for going on nine years. I teach mostly English 9, along with a few electives (including this one!).
My ideas for reasearch topics related to The Glass Castle are:
-alcoholics -more info about Jeannette Walls -where the children are currently -if the mother is still alive -how most alcohlic parents affect their families -artists -New York -Welch, West Virginia -California -money problems and how families deal with it
*(the main one)alcoholism *Jeanette Walls *The Walls family *The places they lived *Artists and the mother *How money plays a roll in families *Mood swings
-research more about the surviving Walls -research the towns they lived in -research the classmates of the Walls children -research NYC and the places the Walls children worked -try and find some of Rose Walls' paintings

My ideas for the Glass Castle are:
- Research what happens when little kids parents are Alcoholic and how it makes an impression towards the kids.
- Find out about how and what depression is.
- Find out how many families are struggling to pay for a home and pay child support.
So my ideas are pretty much research random things that family's have wrong with them.
My idea for the Glass Castle is:
-We BUILD a frickin' Glass Castle.
Thank you.

My ideas for the Glass Castle would be:
-research what happened to the children after they left for New York; what the book doesn't talk about.
-research things on Alcoholic families and the things it can do to the children.
-read other books with Alcoholic fathers and families and compare what happens in each.
-find out if Rose is still alive or if she has died.
and...
-research the area's that they lived (Welch, California, Arizona, New York, etc.)
