[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I posted this on the other thread.  These are the books my child read in 6th grade at Eastern MS:

Gathering Blue: Lois Lowry
The Giver: Lois Lowry
Messenger: Lois Lowry
Watership Down: Richard Adams
Fahrenheit 451 Ray Bradbury
Animal Farm George Orwell
Children's Homer
Red Scarf Girl Ji-li Jiang
Good Earth Pearl S. Buck
Twelfth Night Shakespeare
Our Town Thornton Wilder
Inherit the Wind Jerome Lawrence and Robert Lee
Various short stories and Greek Myths

In all fairness, not all of these were read in the Eastern Magnet SS class. Most were actually read in the Magnet English class. It was up to the teachers to plan which works were discussed in both classes.

The enriched course is in WS only and not in English. No one is disputing that.

How does your child's new enriched humanities class compare?

It's a social studies class not a literature class. Supplements the ss material with a few literary works, but nothing very challenging.[/quote][/quote]
