This book is an oasis of material for teachers and homeschooling parents who want their students to benefit from the education of classic literature and original source material. Michael believes that the classics are part of the heritage our civilization offers; they are part of being civilized. Classic literature helps us to equip our children with preferences for subtlety, complexity, curiosity, equality, honesty, harmony, and humanityand can help to inoculate them against stupidity and cruelty while inspiring them with the love of thought. Once they are comfortable with ordinary educated language, children love the classics and prefer them to forgettable books. Children who read classic books delight in good ideas, characterization, depth, complexity, word play, originality, cleverness, and imagination as much as adults do. Classics, Michael writes, make wonderfully appropriate sources of gifted ideas for gifted thinking. Classics in the Classroom has two parts. The first part contains Michaels approach to classic literature and how it should be taught. The second part contains a list of 1,350 titles for readers in kindergarten through graduate school. Arranged alphabetically by author, the list includes comedy, tragedy, adventure, drama, childrens stories, poetry, philosophy, and history. It is crossreferenced to other distinguished reading lists and indicates books that are prizewinners.
