This the the last year (12th grade) most of my students will participate in formal learning. I would like to send them off into the real world with two things. First, I'd like them to have a deeper understanding of the kinds of English literature that exists. These students with reading difficulties are not aware of most classic stories because the classes they've been in are focused on teaching basic reading and writing skills. Second, I want them all to realize that whether or not they are good at writing, they have a voice and can therefore express and support their thoughts. Most importantly, I want them to know that what they think matters. The students will use the class sets of both Beowulf and Macbeth (on-level, required texts) during whole-class units. The writing guide (which has been highly recommended) will provide concrete exercises for them to learn to think critically and write clearly. With the single copies of various other graphic novels, the students will have the opportunity to choose a book and present it to the class. My hope is that this will spark conversations about the classics and that they will become more interested in reading. Thank you for considering my project!
