I am a certified English Language Arts teacher with 23 years of teaching experience. I approach sensitive topics in texts by modeling sensitivity and maturity during open discussions with students.

~the ability to print out various handouts provided by teacher, or student may draw/write/copy the handouts (graphic organizers) on their own paper ~highlighter/pencil for annotating (or familiarity with digital annotation tools if using digital copy of text) ~notebook for taking notes (or digital method of note-taking) ~misc. items as needed based on student's choice for final project (poster board, markers, other art supplies)

2 hours per week in class, and an estimated 2 - 4 hours per week outside of class.
Death
Students will need a hard copy, or digital copy, of the novel listed above to read and annotate. I will give students digital access to the poems, short stories, and essays/articles we read.
