Classic Literature Reading List for Middle School Students By: LuAnn Schindler Many middle school students enjoy the connection with a young adult novel, but classic literature never goes out of style. Several humanities organizations have established a classic literature reading list that emphasizes the importance of reading timeless books. This list introduces new characters and alien worlds to the middle school set. Several of these books are commonly taught in middle school English classes, so adding them to a summer reading list can give your child an advantage when they come up during the school year.

  • Becoming “American”: Race, Class, Gender, and Assimilation
    BECOMING “AMERICAN”: RACE, CLASS, GENDER, AND ASSIMILATION IDEOLOGIES IN YOUNG ADULT MEXICAN IMMIGRANT FICTION by JANIE IRENE COWAN (Under the Direction of Joel A. Taxel) This dissertation explores representations of race, class, gender and ideologies of assimilation in thirty-two young adult novels involving the Mexican immigrant experience published from 1953-2009. The study draws upon several theories, but is primarily located within the paradigm of critical Marxist educational, cultural, and literary theories including the sociology of school knowledge and critical multiculturalism based upon the work of Raymond Williams, Michael Apple, Joel Taxel, Stephen May and Christine Sleeter. I also draw upon theories of assimilation throughout U.S. history such as e pluribus unum, the melting pot, multiculturalism, transnationalism, and hybridity, with emphasis upon the work of Homi Bhabha that conceptualizes cultural hybridity as spaces of cultural negotiation and rearticulation. To provide further context for the study, I also review representations of Mexican Americans in larger American culture via historical accounts, school textbooks, and the entertainment media of television and film. I address the following research questions: What ideologies of assimilation are suggested in young adult contemporary fiction involving the Mexican immigrant experience? How do they change (or not change) over time? How do the intersections of assimilation ideologies and representations of ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and gender in young adult contemporary

    FEMALE SLAVE PORTRAYALS IN CHILD AND YOUNG ADULT HISTORICAL FICTION BY AFRICAN AMERICAN AUTHORS BY NGOZI ONUORA DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Education in Curriculum and Instruction in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2014 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Violet J. Harris, Chair Professor Arlette I. Willis Associate Professor Karla J. Möller Professor James D. Anderson Abstract This study explored several works of historical fiction focused on slavery in the United States written by African- Americans for middle-level children. This exploration juxtaposed portrayals of female slaves developed by African-American female authors with portrayals created by African-American male authors. Historical fiction for children and young adults was collected and analyzed using literary criticism and literary theory that is interpretive in nature. Several key themes of the literature were identified as critical to understanding the slave experiences of black women in the United States. A combination of critical race theory and critical black feminism served as the theoretical lenses from which the portrayals were critiqued. The research suggested the importance of understanding the historical contributions of black girls and women to our country during the ante- and post-bellum eras. The use of historical fiction to supplement the social studies and American history curricula for middle grade youth was recommended. Keywords: slavery,
