Abstract: | Cle invited several classroom teachers to select a novel which regularly goes well with their classes, to analyse its success, and to discuss the ways in which they and their classes have shared the book together.Gill Bullen chose Ian Serraillier'sThe Silver Sword (published in the United States asEscape from Warsaw), which she enjoys teaching to eleven and twelve-year-old children of all abilities. John Hodgson, who has taught in both England and the United States, has found Albert Camus'The Outsider (published in the States asThe Stranger) to be a popular choice with students of fifteen and over.Further contributions from teachers will be published in our next issue. |
