Case: Teaching Huckleberry Finn in the Deep South
A high school ELA teacher has just moved to southern Georgia from Dallas, Texas. As a teacher in Texas, she experienced a high level of diversity in her school, and the school practiced multiculturalism in every content area. Now she is teaching at a rural, 1-A school in the Deep South, and she has just received approval to teach Mark Twain's, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. What preparations should she make before teaching such a controversial, yet necessary, novel?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
The teacher should be prepared to bring in background information along with actual skits or role-playing that showcase unfair treatment because of a certain factor. |

Comments: I don't think students would want to do skits from the book if they are not sure of the content, or depending on how they were raised. |

Comments: While this could work, you would need to consider the student's comfort level. Also ensure that the lesson is approved by the supervisors. |
