Novel News

We have begun reading our first novel of the year, The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton.  At the beginning of the year, students identified several questions that they have in common a, including questions about themselves and their world.  We will be exploring some of these questions as we reflect on various themes in the novel, including questions about hatred and violence.  This is a good opportunity to learn more about what your son or daughter thinks about these important issues as well as to share your ideas and values with them.
