Proud theatre teacher. I believe in creating safe spaces for young people to create and grow. Thoughts and opinions are my own.

I once shared on Facebook a post from a group that said, “some people teach the curriculum and some people teach the students” and a prominent person in TX theatre education messaged me about how I should take that down- I still stand by this, regardless of her “mentoring”

[Branson Cobb @MrCobbTeaches]

@MrsSammyMcManus That’s dangerous!

[Branson Cobb @MrCobbTeaches]

My favorite kind of theatre teachers are ones who are willing to serve and grow kids, regardless of who they are. #TTSF fills my cup because I’m surrounded by so many of them.

[Branson Cobb @MrCobbTeaches]

@JB_HISD_Theatre Pause. That’s 58 kids that’s are being served by their theatre programs so much that they are wanting to pass that on to others. Once I was one of those kids sitting in a room (w/ Gary Cooper) just like this.

Thank you for supporting educators with your whole heart.

[Branson Cobb @MrCobbTeaches]

@JB_HISD_Theatre @anncobb521 Yes we’re both here! We were just talking about how we haven’t seen YOU! We’re tabbing and helping to run IEs!

[Branson Cobb @MrCobbTeaches]

@Lorrainecsoto @SotoTRHS @Texas_Thespians @Texas_STO @TRHSDrama I couldn’t be more proud of them!

[Branson Cobb @MrCobbTeaches]

This!

Opinion: I’ve never respected someone more because they used the phrase “I’ve been doing ______ longer than you’ve been alived”

[Branson Cobb @MrCobbTeaches]

@MrsSammyMcManus I already miss all these stunners!

[Branson Cobb @MrCobbTeaches]

@CWicksClassroom @TheDungeoneers Thank you! Also, it is not okay how long it has been since the three of us were in one room!

[Branson Cobb @MrCobbTeaches]

@MrRobArcher Your authentic self is amazing!

[Branson Cobb @MrCobbTeaches]

@Tiffany_Hoelzel The original quote is that you “fall” to the level of your systems- which just speaks volumes

[Branson Cobb @MrCobbTeaches]

“Teachers need to also be diligent about ______” is not an acceptable solution to addressing issues. There is only so much that we can actively monitor and patrol.

[Branson Cobb @MrCobbTeaches]

A real conversation that needs to happen is that theatre teachers shouldn't have to fight to use their theatre spaces. This might seem small, but it's a breaking point.

[Branson Cobb @MrCobbTeaches]

My life saver right now: scheduled Remind messages!

[Branson Cobb @MrCobbTeaches]

If you are pushing RIGOR in education you are pushing education backwards!

[Branson Cobb @MrCobbTeaches]

@CWicksClassroom I’ve been advocating for this for a long time. It would grow both teachers in the room and would result in much more relevant feedback to the current classroom (not the classroom of ten plus years ago).

[Branson Cobb @MrCobbTeaches]

Waiting almost two months to put in a walk through is not providing valuable feedback.

[Branson Cobb @MrCobbTeaches]

As I sit here and work on my spring schedule, I am getting excited about the work I get to do with my amazing students both in the classroom and on the stage. Big things are coming!
