Hi!

I'm a high school Librarian and an English teacher has asked me to suggest texts for seniors to study- especially from an author who is not white and male and, preferably, not from Europe.

What do your English seniors study? We have both IB (International Baccalaureate) and College Prep, so advanced students and your very average students.

How is the text chosen? Have you ever been asked to contribute ideas?

I'm very glad she has asked and am eager to research. The teacher suggested that it's very helpful to have a novel, play, etc., on which research has been conducted, so it is easier to teach the work.

Thank you in advance for any and all suggestions.


Lori
