Students need to be able to read contemporary materials that feature non-white characters/people so that they can both see themselves and see other perspectives. I will be distributing these books to students who do not have books to read and we will be discussing their content and writing about them in order to address the Common Core Standards as well as improving our communication and critical thinking skills. I would like to be able to make sure that my students have real books in their hands, even though we have to resort to distance learning for the beginning of the next school year. It is my intention and hope to make positive, lasting connections with students that I will not be able to meet face-to-face at the beginning of the school year. In making those connections and providing meaningful content for students, I will be able to increase participation in distance learning for my students.
