This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
I am a third year English teacher at a Title I high school in rural NC. The majority of our students are from low-income families.
In American Literature, students read The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne. Besides being one of the greatest American novels ever, The Scarlet Letter explores several themes such as sin, evil, identity, and society. Studying the novel allows students to examine choices and their consequences. Students may even relate parts of the novel to their own experiences.
Currently, there are two other American Literature classes who will also be studying the novel. There are not enough copies for everyone. Not to mention, the copies that we do have are old and worn. I am requesting enough copies for students to use in class and also at home. Thanks for any assistance you can provide.
