My Project

As my senior English students reach their final quarter of high school, it's important that they continue to read and learn from literature. As newly independent citizens, critical reading skills and engaging texts that provoke opinions is more important than ever.

This large set of books would let juniors and seniors carry analog copies out of the building with them, allowing students with a spectrum of reading levels to take on the text at their own pace, both in and outside of the classroom.

This dystopian page turner will engage, inspire, and excite students in this last and important high school quarter.
