Our students do not have many books of their own at home. On average, they spend less than 20 minutes reading on their lexile level per day. It only takes 20 minutes per day to increase their readiness for the real world and college if they so choose. Reading "The Hate U Give" is of especially high interest to them because it deals with real world class and racial issues they can relate to and can discuss using critical thinking. This book is currently a movie and we will invite students to see the movie for enrichment once we have read the book. "The Hate U Give" fosters inspired readers, political activists, agents of change in the community, and hopeful humans. Many of our students read several grade levels below what is expected, and high interest reading helps them develop their vocabulary, in addition to critical thinking skills. This book will be paired in a unit with "Warriors Don't Cry," so that our students can expand their ELA skills, while reading high interest books.
