My student Latin teacher said, “Isn’t Dido’s death like when Bambi’s mother dies? It is isn’t it! Well you see, there is the drama of Bambi’s mother dying but you don’t see it happening! And here Dido kills herself but it’s hard to visualize a strong queen committing suicide! After Dido dies the story shifts almost immediately saying ‘Meanwhile Aeneas was sailing away….’ It’s almost like after the death of Bambi’s mother they play the song Let’s Play a Gay Little Spring Song.” He then starts breaking into song. I have never had so much respect for a grown man (mainly because our classes are video taped due to evaluation purposes for our student teacher and he was willing to sing a song from the Classic Disney Era).

Well if you haven’t seen the movie Bambi or it’s been too long for you to remember the song here it is. Thank you WalkDisneyCartoons@youtube!

I’m a new admin and I’d love to hear about any of your teacher/student teacher that act like this.
