My students are primarily active boys. I am constantly working to find activities and lessons that have a strong moral/ethical component while also engaging them in the content. I want my students to see the value in reading and also understand that every choice they make has a consequence. I teach at a public school with strong community support, although the students in my classes usually have varying degrees of parental involvement. I feel that it is my responsibility to help them to see the bigger picture and make the connection between reading and their lives. The eighth grade reading class is the last opportunity many of them will have to work through reading stumbling blocks before being immersed in a high school curriculum with little support.
