My Project
A class set of "The Book Thief" would be a tremendous aid in helping my middle schoolers be prepared to set into the world of reading and historical literature before going into high school. My students have a goal of reading 20 books throughout the year, and this book would be number 20 or above for nearly 80% of my students.
My goal for this novel is to place a central focus on social studies, through historical fiction.
My students, unfortunately, missed out on several of their social studies curricula after a teacher quit mid-year, and we have been working as a team to give them the content they need and deserve. My students, being a mix of English language learners and high-level readers, this novel would be a positive challenge and goal that many students are so close to reaching. Being in a Title I school, this project would allow the students access to material, that I can not provide, nor the school budget.
