In honor of Banned Books Week, I am offering an Extra Credit Opportunity to my students. There are two options, but students may only turn in one extra credit assignment. (If a student has me for two classes, he/she may turn in one extra credit assignment per class.) These Extra Credit assignments will be due on Friday, October 2nd!
Extra Credit Option #1:
Take a picture of yourself or someone you know with a book/several books that has/have been banned or challenged. You may select a book from the list in the below document or do some research yourself to find another title. Print off your picture(s), and turn it/them in. Make sure to put your name on the back of the picture(s). Please give me high-quality pictures. (I will likely use these pictures in future library displays, so if you aren’t comfortable with that, you may choose the other option.)
Extra Credit Option #2:
Find a book that has been banned or challenged that you have personally read. Do a little research to find out why it was banned or challenged. Write one paragraph answering the following questions: Do you think this book should have been banned/challenged? Why or why not? Make sure to include the title and author of the book you write about.
