Our students have loved reading novels in their classes in the past. Not only this, but we have also noticed that when we read novels in class together, our test scores are increasing. Because of this we would love to add another novel to our curriculum.
With that being said, we would love to add a book that is more culturally relevant to the diverse community of students we serve. Many of the books our students have read in the past have white character leads, and All American Boys adds quite a twist to that narrative. Many of our students have dealt with racism in their lives and this book, will not only help our students improve their reading and comprehension skills, it will help us lead the difficult conversations that need to be had around race in America.
