THE OUTSIDERS...

There is so much that can be said about this timeless classic. I was extremely excited about getting the opportunity to teach this novel. I prepped for a month preparing to teach one of my first loves..The Outsiders. It was on the curriculum for seventh grade at another school...I ended up not taking the job there because of location. I hoped that my preparation efforts would not be wasted, and I could teach it to my seventh grade class at my current job. Unfortunately, they teach it in eighth grade because of contraversial content. :( A lot of my students have already read the book, though. They, too, enjoyed it immensely.
