The hero-narrator of The Catcher in the Rye is an ancient child of sixteen, a native New Yorker named Holden Caufield.

Download or read book Recommended Literature Grades Nine Through Twelve written by California. State Department of Education and published by Hippocrene Books. This book was released on 1990 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intended as a guide for local-level policymakers, curriculum planners, teachers, and librarians, this book lists over 1200 titles of books as examples of good literature for high school students. It is intended to encourage educators to review their literature programs and the accompanying instructional materials and to encourage students to read and to view reading literature as a worthwhile activity. The book is divided into two sections: (1) core and extended materials (those selections which are to be taught in the classroom and works which may be assigned to supplement classwork); and (2) recreational and motivational literature (to guide students when selecting individual, leisure-time reading materials). Titles are listed within these sections by traditional categories that are generally well-known by high school teachers. Categories are: biographies; drama; folklore, mythology, and epics; nonfiction, essays, and speeches; novels; poetry; short stories; and books in languages other than English. Books are listed alphabetically by author, and a matrix is used to give helpful information that will assist selectors when searching for a title. Works in the core and extended section are coded by type of entry--core or extended; grade span and culture--literary contributions of specific ethnic or cultural groups (Black, Chinese, Filipino, Hispanic, Hmong, American Indian, Japanese, Korean, Khmer, Samoan, Vietnamese). An index of authors and titles is included at the end of the book and an appendix deals with storytelling. (MG)

Activities included are classroom tested, may be tailored to fit each selection, may be accomplished in small or large groups, and may be used as an end in themselves or as a means to an end. Included in the booklet are the following sections: (1) Rationale for Responses to Literature; (2) Engagement Activities, and (3) Management Issues. The contents of the booklet are germane to districts/divisions which are just beginning to use literature in classrooms or which are in the process of implementing a comprehensive literature-based reading program.
