According to our district's keynote speaker, Allison Zmuada, a good way to help at-risk students is through reading inspirational biographies of people who have overcome great odds. We will explore biographies that model the ability to overcome great adversity, to survive, persevere and succeed in life. In addition, the genre of non-fiction can provide our students with more opportunities to develop essential reading and critical thinking skills. We look forward to working with you this year. Our first blog is Michael J. Fox's bio, Lucky Man. Blogging for this book will start on December 1st.
Kathy and Chris
