1930 vs 2011
Eighth graders stepped back in time to a 1930’s culture very different from our diverse, NYC present. Students caught a glimpse of the African American struggle through the Logan family in Mildred D. Taylor’s award-winning novel, Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry. Students wrestled with questions about prejudice, revenge, and justice. Additionally, students discussed and debated the controversial issue of offshore outsourcing, as well as writing a research paper expressing their view.
