A Parent Book Club
One of the most powerful tools for helping students to choose the good is a story. Stories help us understand people – past and present – real and imaginary. Stories can be useful in shaping one’s conscience by sharing lessons without preaching or demanding. Stories lead students to open their minds and reflect on what moves them, what challenges them, what angers them, and what surprises them. Ultimately, these reflections enrich and transform students’perspectives. Stories can teach the virtues needed to meet difficulties, to offer compassion, to live humbly, to share, to struggle, and to learn.What our children read plays a meaningful role in their intellectual and moral development. As they engage with challenging ideas, sophisticated language, past culture and history, and enduring human questions, they grow as thinkers and readers. Few authors have shaped the Western literary tradition as profoundly as William Shakespeare. His plays remain central not only to our curriculum, but to the broader conversation about literature, language, and human nature.This year’s Classics Book Club invites parents to read and discuss the Shakespeare plays their children encounter in Grades 8 through 12 – Romeo and Juliet, Julius Caesar, Macbeth, Hamlet, and King Lear. Whether your student is approaching these texts or already reading them, we invite you to join the conversation and experience these classic works. Dr. Davis will be our guide through these sessions.
All discussions will be held in the Washington Room in Founders Hall at 8:30 am.Bring your coffee and learn more about what our students are learning! Questions? Contact linda.pryor@brookfieldacademy.org. -
