Well, things seem to have settled down since we had a horde of schoolkids running round here, but I saw this web page about one school using THE ILLUSTRATED MAN in classes:

I thought it would be good to have a thread specifically about Bradbury in the classroom. So this is it!

Question: Is THE ILLUSTRATED MAN widely used in American schools? Is FAHRENHEIT 451 being supplanted?

You know my answer, phil!

Great to see this! I shared this article with my former Eng. chairperson and librarians I am in touch with. Maybe a similar program can be set up in a similar manner!! (After my March seminars).

Geez, I thought I was "out of the classroom... "

Amok, amok, amok!

And, the schools are worse than the students. Expelled for sharing lifesaving medicine, http://denver.cbslocal.com/201...g-an-asthma-inhaler/ but if they'd been rude to the point of bullying they wouldn't have even been spoken to. I recently bumped up this https://raybradburyboard.com/ev...1083901/m/9481045372 about Bradbury in the classroom.
