To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee: Read, Discuss and Get Help
Class experience
US Grade 8 - 10
To Kill a Mockingbird is a classic that I think everyone should read. We will get to read and study this great book about a small town in Alabama during the racial tensions in America, separate but equal and accusations of crimes as tried during that time. We will have literary discussions as we read. My discussions are primarily focused on what the reader has gotten from the book. I will have questions to ask, with the idea of helping the student become aware of possible areas to think...
The primary goal being that they finish the book with an understanding of what happened in the book (no promise on loving the book as we all have our own tastes). I also hope they are also able to finish the book with some sense of meaning behind it which they find relevant.
Homework Offered
The student will be expected to complete about one-quarter of the book between each class. Time to do this will depend on the student's reading speed.4+ hours per week outside of class
Assessments Offered
Grades Offered
You will need to have a copy of To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee. This can be in whatever format the student is most comfortable reading the book (while I prefer working with readers, if the students is only comfortable with Audio Books, they are welcome to the class). The glossaries will be shared in the OutSchool chat.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
This book does use the terms nigger and negro through-out, as well as the crime being charged being a rape case.
I have worked in the area of reading comprehension since 2011, my favorite part being able to see others read and enjoy books. I am an avid reader and have read most of the Classics (in English), as well as enjoying historical fiction,...
