The Aerie Approach: Literary Voices
Students also learn how they can look, as if armed with X-ray vision, into the subterranean depth of their writing and see what has been hidden from them for so long. They are taught a technique for scene analysis, encouraged to slice and dice, like a Cubist painter, patterns of behavior that before were not always obvious." Robert Koppel, Aerie literary teacher
This Week
This Week at Wheeler, we congratulated Olivia Bush '20 for signing her Division 1 letter of intent to become a member of the Bucknell University field hockey program, and are seizing the moment to make our gift early for Wheeler's Day of Giving. We joined Model UN's Crisis Committee on our Instagram feed, and supported New Urban Arts through our Annual Wheeler Student Art Auction; we also got a glimpse inside the artist's studio of MS Art Teacher, Sarah Daughn. If you're looking for us, we're tucked away in a cozy corner of one of our Libraries for #NaNoWriMo to finish writing our memoir, finally.
