Hello colleagues in the US. I am a teacher Librarian in a K - 12 Australian school
(outer NE Melbourne). I have been lurking on this List serve for a little while now.
I've been in my current position for 7 years but in education for the last 30 years
having had a variety of teaching roles in that time. Only the last 11 years have
been in school libraries. It's a challenging job and one that is never the same
from one second to the next.
My latest little puzzler is the following. I have put it to my Australian
colleagues with a couple of results, but need to seek wisdom from further afield.
If any of you can offer a suggestion, or even 2, I would be most appreciative.
I have an English teacher colleague who is looking for fiction or film which
depicts a community of people who are successful and who don't degenerate into
power struggles & chaos.
Animal Farm & Lord of the Flies are the works being studied and the teacher would
like to present an opposite perspective of social interactions in fiction.
Cheers from the Antipodes
