My students are incredibly involved in Reader's Workshop. They are adept at analyzing literature and finding theme and seeking parallels to their own experiences. These books will add an important component of perspective and opportunity to learn from diverse voices and experiences. They are also learning about the need for compassion and empathy. The books I have researched (such as Fish in a Tree, Wonder, and Inside Out and Back Again) will provide more with the addition of historical fiction, realistic fiction, and poetry the students are building a repertoire of experience to learn of and from.
The students are already spectacular readers and ready to discuss their reading with wit, curiosity and insight.
Reading great literature can bring situations of their own life into focus as they read of story that has striking similarities to their own. Reading great literature can teach them to empathize with a life that seems different but allows them to understand the very seemingly adult concept of the "Human Condition." Most importantly, my students are building the habits for lifelong reading as a 21st century skill.
