Description

Class Experience

I am a licensed teacher in English Language Arts. I have been teaching for 10 years. 
Students will need to read each chapter of A Christmas Carol independently. Students can read the book in print, a digital version, or the audiobook. Some students benefit from reading the book while also listening to the book on audio.

 A Christmas Carol is in the public domain. You can access audiobooks for free from many different sources online. You can also read the book for free with this link from Project Gutenberg: https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/46
Students will need a copy of A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens. You may use the print, digital, or audiobook version.
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
Students will complete Google Forms each week with higher-order thinking questions based on Bloom's Taxonomy. They will receive feedback on their answers to the questions from the teacher. 

Students will also keep track of their own learning using a reading journal.
No live meetings, and an estimated 2 - 4 hours per week outside of class.
There are some scary parts of the story. Ghosts visits the main character. Poverty impacts adults and children in the story. A family in the story is mourning the death of a child. Some characters drink alcohol and smoke tobacco in this novel. 

There is some religious language used in the novel, such as the famous phrase "God bless us, everyone." The novel was published in 1843 and this was common place in society at the time. The main theme of the story is caring about people around you and doing good works. The story also has a nice message about how you can redeem yourself and how you can make positive changes in your life.

Common Sense Media rates this book as being appropriate for ages 9 and up. Please review the link for more information about this book from: https://www.commonsensemedia.org/book-reviews/a-christmas-carol-in-prose-being-a-ghost-story-of-christmas
