SEC: Interdisciplinary unit for banned book week

[Rena Deutsch <renadeutsch@WORLDNET.ATT.NET>]

I have been discussing with one of our 9th grade social studies teachers
the possibility of her classes doing a unit (or project) that ties into
Banned Book week along with the English classes (The students will all have
the same two teachers).  The 9th grade social studies curriculum is Global
Studies, and the first semester is Ancient History, but I think she's
pretty flexible and willing to "move away" from the syllabus for a while.

If your English teachers, your Social Studies teachers, and/or your English
and Social Studies teachers together have done an interesting project
related to Banned Books week (including censorship, First Amendment, Human
Rights????) or if you just have any ideas, I would love to hear them!

Thanks in advance.
