This class is taught in English.
For students to gain confidence in sharing their thoughts and opinions, gain a love of reading and literature, and learn a bit about history (evacuees from WW2) along the way.
I am originally from Britain, and as a child, I went around many stately homes. My parents were both born in the 1930s, and my mum's stories of WWII allowed me to see history in such a different way. I have taken many classes in history, and my love for literature has grown over the years, that I would love to share this love to allow students to see that history and literature can be fun to learn and to learn how communities can come together. I have taken many university-level courses in communication and history which help me address this book to allow students to engage in the topics of this book in a healthy, safe environment.
Reading about 5 chapters a week.
We will be using the second book of the Guest of War Trilogy by Kit Pearson called The Lights Go On Again. Some version have all 3 books of the trilogy (The Sky is Falling / Looking at the Moon / The Lights Go On Again) in one book instead of three. This would work too for the class since it has the third book inside it.
