As a classroom of students who have faced significant trauma and have emotional disabilities, diving deep into the characters has allowed for individual reflection. The Grape family has endured trauma that has not been properly dealt with and has caused difficulty in future relationships. We have used the characters to write a character analysis essay. This students are able to connect with the characters due to their similar pasts. \r\n\r\nA typical day of reading in our classroom looks like reading as a collective group. Each student chooses a character to read, and I read as the narrator. We pause periodically to analyze why characters are reacting the way they are reacting. \r\n\r\nWhile some students are openly enjoying the book more than others, the class as a whole is participating and adding to conversations. They have also been critical of the parts left out of the movie, showing that they are in fact paying attention and engage.","fullyFundedDate":1769191989081,"projectUrl":"project/johnny-depp-and-leonardo-dicaprio-in-hig/9883217/","projectTitle":"Johnny Depp and Leonardo DiCaprio in High School English","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Mott","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-9_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10345816"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_29924","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":307,"numTeachers":25,"percentFrplEligible":51,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":92,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":2,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":3,"gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"12.3:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"TOWN","ncesMetroType":"TOWN_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":100.0,"schoolId":29924,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Sullivan High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Sullivan High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/illinois/sullivan-community-unit-school-district-300/sullivan-high-school/29924"}
