This upcoming year, my class will have a unit focused on memoirs, where in the end they will write one of their own. Within my class, I encourage uniqueness and personal choice. Currently, I am only able to offer one choice of memoir to the students. Student choice in books is the beginning to sparking a love of reading. By having multiple memoirs for my students to chose from, there will be a deeper connection between the student and the book. Each student will be able to use their prior experiences in life to possibly identify themselves within the book. I have asked for memoirs that span across many real life experiences. Even if a student has not been directly affected by one of the experiences, they may know someone who has.
