Sophomores at N.H.S. read these texts. They're part of our district curriculum, and they end up becoming the foundational texts for our students because it's one of the last times that such a large portion of the grade level reads a single, unifying text. After sophomore year, students branch into 3 different classes, so this year is really powerful. The students end up remembering both Animal Farm and Of Mice and Men for years to come, and many of them list these two texts as their favorites when they're seniors. The trouble we have right now is that our district will not purchase more copies of these texts, so students are forced to read the books in class rather than take them home to experience literature in their own space. The 88 copies we have are divided between 2 teachers for 6 sections of sophomore English. Thus, there is a great deal of time spent on just reading in class rather than having rich conversation from the previous night's reading. We've made this adjustment for the last couple of years, but at this point, students need to take books outside of the room to further their education without so many restrictions.
