Mrs. Gangel explains the benefits of choral speaking, “No one person is up there trying to do it themselves. The plays are written for 40 kids at one time. We get the whole class up there. They speak chorally in parts. The parts are pretty much equal, so no one feels left out.”

And the performance pressure is lessened by not having to memorize even, thing. If a child forgets a line or a phrase, someone else has got it covered.

Gangel’s choral activities books are available in teacher supply and resource stores. She has seen one of her books at The Learning Tree in Culpeper. If the store does not have the book, chances are they will have the catalogue and can order it for you. Mrs. Gangel’s new book is currently listed in the 1999 New Product for Back-to-School which is put out by The Frank Schaffer Publications Family of Companies and will be listed in their new catalogue this year.

Mrs. Gangel lives in Rappahannock with her husband in a house they decided to build from scratch five years ago. David Gangel is the Superintendent of the Rappahannock Public Schools. The school system does not allow spouses to work together in the same system, so Mrs. Gangel works in Luray at Springfield Elementary for Page County. She loves it and has been teaching there for ten years.
