For this study I will be in an 8th grade World History classroom. I decided to focus on a standard where students will be able to use novels to support the lessons they will be learning about in class. Sometimes students forget that novels can help us in every subject across the board. Implementing this in the classroom will allow students to analyze an event using multiple forms of media.
