My Project

My students are engaging in novel studies to cultivate critical thinking, foster empathy, and enhance language skills. By exploring diverse literary works, students are encouraged to connect with various perspectives, cultures, and historical contexts. These studies promote independent inquiry, self-expression, and collaborative discussions, allowing students to draw personal insights from the material.

Novel studies provide an opportunity to develop skills in analysis, interpretation, and communication, which are essential for lifelong learning.

This approach aligns with the Montessori philosophy of nurturing each student's intellectual curiosity and fostering a love for learning through literature. My students need these seven new book sets so they can engage in novel studies. The bookmarks will be used as incentives for participating in discussion.
