During this session, Erin will be presenting our lower secondary program for diverse reading. The aim of this program is to introduce students to a wide range of texts featuring a variety of characters, authors, settings, and perspectives. This program is supplementary to the core English program. It encourages students to read widely for pleasure, to explore different ideas, and representations and to be able to discuss and give their opinions on the books they have read.
