6th-12th Grade

Must Read:

Wonder by R.J. Palacio

The Essential Gibran by Suheil Bushrui

The Courage of Boston’s Children Volume XVIII by the Max Warburg Courage Curriculum

Can we find a way to use the book Outliers by Malcom Gladwell in middle and high schools?

I love this book and have been trying to think of ways to use it with upper grades. I will keep you posted (no pun intended). I did meet a tenth, soon to be eleventh grader, who had read and discussed in his private school. I wonder about sixth grade and beyond for this book and the notion of ten thousand hours or the idea of practice creating the “brilliant minds” of today.
