My Project

At my district, we are implementing the HMH Into Literature curriculum for middle school students. I want to give my students the best experience of English learning by giving them novel studies through completing literature circles.

We have many wonderful books to study and explore in America, and I want to be able to expose my students to the beauty of the English language.

By giving my students the opportunity to hold physical copies of different books, they will be able to truly explore literature and have academic conversations. It is my hope to instill a love for literature, or at least gain a new appreciation for what books can do for the mind.
