My Project
This year, I will be teaching my 6th grade students exclusively with novels. Our first novel of the year will be Wonder by R.J. Palacio. My goal is for each student to have a physical copy of the book in their hands every day.
Empathy is the medicine the world needs.
Many students, and adults, struggle to have empathy for others. As a reading teacher, I have the power and tools to teach empathy through modern stories such as "Wonder."
My students come from a low-income area and we are a Title 1 school. However, this doesn't define our students. They are kind, curious and eager to learn. Help me provide them with a novel that has the power to change the way they empathize with others.
