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!) I think she should build up to the book by teaching things that were common during that time period and remind students that if anything bothers them that as a class or in private it can be discussed.
