The world does not begin and end with laptops! Although our one-to-one laptop initiative grant has supplied laptops for each of our students, our textbook spending has suffered. The need for supplemental teaching materials is a real one, and I’d love for my students to have access to these books—How to Read Literature Like a Professor and A Pocket Style Manual. Both of these supplemental books will help my students become more autonomous in upper-level courses and, ultimately, help them prepare for college. I realize asking for complete class sets is not feasible, but my students can share the number I’m requesting as we work through the English 4 Honors and AP Literature and Composition classes. These books would become a valuable addition for both classes, and I plan to get much use out of them. How to Read Literature Like a Professor is written in accessible language and is easily understood by high school students. It’s useful in helping students learn to look for the various literary elements in their required reading. The lessons learned within will guide my students into more complex levels of close reading without intimidation. The other book I’m requesting, A Pocket Style Manual, is a reader-friendly guide for academic writing. My students will be able to use what they learn from this little book throughout the rest of their academic career.
