Ms. Palmer from Huntersville NC is requesting Books through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.
Being an Invisible Man
My students need a classroom set of Invisible Man to continue their exploration of a variety of texts covering different authors, genres, and time periods.
My Students
My school is a brand new school that lives on the campus of a community college, serving as a middle college/dual enrollment program. The student population is made up of extraordinary 11th-grade and 12th-grade students from high schools all around our city, that are in route to getting their high school diploma and an Associates degree within their last two years of high school. Those students can also leave with an additional certificate in a trade of their choice, if they choose to stay for a 13th year.
The students at my school are many things, but one word that I would use to describe them is amazing.
The students come from many different ethnic and cultural backgrounds. We have children that are first-generation, soon-to-be high school graduates and others that have overcome many financial difficulties in route to gaining the best education possible. Regardless of the adversities our scholars face, all of them work hard, every day. Unfortunately, a lot of our scholars go without a lot of things and as an educator, I try to provide them with what I can.
My Project
My AP students will use Invisible Man for their Independent Reading Projects! They will be able to further explore authors, genres, and time periods with the addition of this novel to our classroom. The best way to increase reading ability is to read more, and these books will continue to help my students grow stronger in reading. My students already have shown an astonishing interest in independent reading, and this project will only help enrich their experiences with the printed word. Independent reading time is something that is greatly undervalued in some schools, especially print-text. I believe strongly in exposing my students to a variety of educational resources, both with technology and with printed materials.
