Description

Class Experience

Students will develop an understanding of To Kill A Mockingbird and the social climate that made it an American classic. They will examine the text through multiple lenses. In doing so, they will strengthen their critical thinking skills and develop a greater understanding of the role of literature in providing context for historical, social, and cultural knowledge.
As a certified teacher with a Masters Degree in Education and a BA in English Literature and Black Studies, I am trained to conduct a literary analysis from multiple lenses. With over 10 years of experience working in classrooms and facilitating groups of young people, I am adept at addressing sensitive and high risk topic with young learners. Guidelines will be set from the start that will prepare the learners for the discussion of sensitive topics and provide them with the appropriate tools to engage in those discussions. Unsolicited expressions around sensitive topics will be addressed collectively through restorative group discussions, and if need be, independently via email with the learner.
Students will be provided with connection questions to answer independently. These question will be provided each lesson and will be due at the beginning of each lesson. These questions should take approximately one hour each to complete. Students will also be assigned a critical analysis paper as a culminating assignment. Students will be expected to read approximately 40-50 pages per lesson.

This class will analyze the text from multiple lenses. We will analyze this highly racial text by looking at the story from the lens of the black and white characters in the text. We will also examine several primary historical sources to give us a deeper understanding of the racial and social climate of the times.
