We will study the book Midnight Without a Moon by Linda Williams Jackson. This book takes place in Mississippi in 1955, it is a fictional account of the events surrounding Emmett Till. Funding of this project will allow each child the have their own paperback book so that they can annotate and highlight parts of the book they feel are important. The composition books will allow each child to have their own "project" to complete and take home. They will keep all materials at school until the project is complete. After completion, they will take both books home to keep. The objective is to teach these students to read and comprehend quality literature as well as gain a better understanding of the story of Emmett Till.
