My Students

ENG 2 in my state focuses on multiculturalism. By the end of the school year I want them to have read about and researched many diverse cultures. My students are hungry for these type of texts.

Everyday I try to inspire my students to grow in their reading and writing skills- to see the best in themselves and that they are capable of more than they know.

My students come from a small rural school where the school is the center of the community. Many of my students rarely travel far outside of the town. They are eager for new experiences and opportunities to try or explore things they haven't encountered before.

My Project

With the "I Am Malala: How One Girl Stood Up for Education and Changed the World" class book sets my students will be able to read it to gain a greater understanding of this amazing young woman and her experiences. It will also jump start a research project into education and freedom of speech issues/debates around the world. This student edition of this memoir has photos and materials that will help my students with this project.

This memoir will help my students gain a deeper understanding of the middle east and the Islamic communities who are also negatively impacted by terrorism.

With world events I think this is a crucial time to encourage students to learn more about this and of brave people fighting the good fight such as Malala. I've had one student read this memoir as an independent project and she loved it. I hope to bring this experience to the rest of my students.
