These novels will help students in the literature courses taught at Almond-Bancroft High School. Students need the opportunity to connect with the literature in the classroom. I am looking for highly engaging and relatable texts in order to teach students much-needed skills in analysis, critical thinking, thoughtful communication, and empathetic listening.
Representation matters. Currently, the novels taught at Almond-Bancroft do not represent 30% of the population of students. I have advocated creating a Contemporary Literature class that would help motivate all students to be empathetic and caring citizens of the world. I have also asked for a few novels in Spanish for our EL population. Currently, we do not have an EL Teacher on staff and all accommodations much come from teachers in the classroom. These novels would help make stories accessible to students who are learning English.
Your donation would help me buy novels that will lead to nuanced and complex discussions of what it means to be human. I hope you consider helping youth in Wisconsin.
