Should High School require students to read the classics?
Its very boring Only if your interested you will understand Its not of any value for kids I believe that students shouldn't read theses books for the reasons above. In the article it states "I also believe that requiring students to read books they cannot understand or appreciate is a quick road to extinguishing the fire of literacy." In the text it also states "Unfortunately, if you don’t already love to read and haven’t already developed strong reading skills, it can be difficult to tackle literature from other eras and cultures. Asking students to read books that they are unable to understand because of unfamiliar vocabulary, syntax, or underlying culture will almost surely ensure that they either won’t read the books or that they won’t learn what was intended by those who chose them." This is why i believe that students should not read these books.
