Hi everyone, I have never used this sub before, so I’m not sure this is the correct one, but had a quick question. I am a 7th grade language arts teacher, and I am looking for a new whole class novel to teach. I want a new one in place of the Giver, which I feel the current generation of YA can no longer relate to as well. The new book needs to be appropriate for 7th graders and be something new and refreshing that they can relate to experiences wise. We will start the year with this book, so I want to start off on a strong note. We end with the Outsiders, and they love that one. I appreciate any and all suggestions! Thanks.
