If you teach middle school in either Flint or Grand Rapids, Michigan, I would like to ask for some help. As an acitvity related to reading Bud, not Buddy, our seventh grade students are researching a number of topics on the '30's, and are also researching those two cities. As you can imagine, we have had a hard time finding a lot of good, substantive info on the cities aside from short encyclopedia articles, brief histories and, for Flint, the auto strike of that period. My request for next year - would you be willing to have our students write to you or your students to ask for information about those cities? Only 5 students would be researching each topic. It would bring a nice, personal touch to the research. Also, if you know of any good in-print books about either of those cities, covering either/or the depression era and today, that would be very helpful too. If you would like to help, please write so that I can file away names and e-mail addresses in preparation for next year's research group.
