Case: Real World Issues for Students
As a curious fourth grader, Are you there God? It's Me Margret was recommended to me by my older sister, as I entered puberty. I gained an appreciation for Tiger Eyes in the sixth grade. This story was my first encounter reading about serious issues like stereotypes, death and other issues in life. Today, our students face a multitude of issues and there aren\'t very many literary text in the media center at my school to help address these issues. Our school counselor only addresses basic issues such as drug use, bullying and safety. What are some ways to support my students as they grow into confident knowledgeable citizens in today\'s society?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I teach 7th grade English Language Arts, and I find every opportunity that I can to make a real world teachable moment. For example, I read "The Giver" to my students in class. There are several events that revolve around teenagers going through puberty. I must say that I do tread lightly, but I do discuss that some things are very natural, every experiences them, but there are right ways to handle and wrong ways. Through reading several other short stories and novels, I am able to relate the characters to the students and discuss things like stereotypes, death, etc. |

| Comments: I agree with this solution and think that it is important to tread lightly when discussing these things with students as their parents may want to discuss it with them in more detail. Using short stories and novels are important too. |
