My students need 5 copies of 11 book titles from "Bud, Not Buddy" to "Tobacco Sticks", that are related to themes in "To Kill a Mockingbird."
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Will's classroom raised $777
This project is fully funded
I teach amazing 9th graders at a charter school in Colorado. Like most charter schools, our school has a tiny textbook budget that doesn't have much room for supplementary materials. My students are eager to learn and love reading books together and discussing them.
My students are getting ready to read "To Kill a Mockingbird" and are very enthusiastic about the themes and topics addressed in the book. I want them to have a chance to read other books related to racism, southern culture, and justice.
I would like to have my students engage in literature circles around themes present in "To Kill a Mockingbird." The text set I have requested will allow them to delve deeper into a subject related to "TKAM" and develop another layer of understanding of the novel through comparison.
Your help will give my students the chance to really experience "To Kill a Mockingbird" on several levels. Comparing two texts is a critical skill that leads to all kinds of understanding and learning.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
