1. Examples of Student Responses

Student Response A

I think Sula should be read in ninth grade and above classes. This book can easily relate to life and can teach lessons to immoral people. This book will help to widen children’s vocabulary. The book has many scenes that lead up to parts in the story. The sexuality in the book is no more than a few sentences and it all has a point. Sula can teach children that messing around with married people is immoral and it is liable to happen to you. This book is also saying if you use people, then you are able to get used yourself. This book teaches "what goes around comes around" and that is what many children need to learn. In general this book needs to be read because it not only teaches lessons about being immoral but also lessons about life.
