My Honors classes were up to the task of studying novels that were out of the ordinary, challenging, and vivid. When I consulted our school's book list, that included inventory of each title, it showed we had "Lord of the Rings." My classes became excited, I started teaching background knowledge and examining Tolkien's style and then we found out that it was a typo. Our campus doesn't possess the books. We have no copies of the novels to complete this challenge with my students. These novels would be a fresh challenge for analyzing writing styles, author's purpose, character development and interaction, plot development, themes, and tropes (The Hero's Quest is an excellent example). This trilogy can be taught in alignment to all of the Florida Standards for Language Arts that will be covered in the 2018-2019 school year (and years to come). I have long studied Tolkien's Middle-Earth and can easily adapt lessons and the material to align with our state standards to ensure rigorous instruction.
