Students are to read to page 99 by Monday 9/15.
To Parents-
The novel that your children received today is The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood. It is an amazing work of literature that is also quite controversial. Although I recommend parents to read everything their students read, I know that it is not always easy. I am a parent, so I know how responsiblilities can pile up and time can evaporate. This novel, however, is one that parents should read. The themes of religion and politics, sexuality, gender roles, and individuality are important discussions to have in class and at home.
