As a prior high school English and Theatre teacher I know how important it is to keep students engaged, and one way to keep them engaged is to have a plethora of materials to choose from for classroom use. Feel free to download the Discussion Guide to use in your classroom. It comes complete with discussion questions, theme exploration, and interesting and fun student projects. As a bonus, materials for the novel, The Rock and the River, by Kekla Magoon (Aladdin/ S&S) are also included. Between Us Baxters and The Rock and the River may be taught together or individually.
