My Project
Thank you for looking at my project! I am moving from being a high school teacher into a new role to teach 6th grade this year! My district does not have the funds in the budget to replace or update books, so I would like to replace our outdated novels with a class set of the novel Ghost by Jason Reynolds. (It truly is an amazing book!)
ABOUT THE BOOK:
‘Ghost’ is an award-winning book that tells the tale of Castle Cranshaw, a troubled seventh-grade boy who has had to deal with a lot in his life.
Castle’s father is in prison for trying to shoot Castle, and Castle’s mum is always working extremely hard to make a better life for Castle. They live in a rough neighborhood called Glass Manor and Castle struggles at school and feels he has no purpose.
Thank you for choosing my project, and bless you for helping the next generation to experience this novel and learn in new ways through book clubs!
