Kevin'sMom Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 An article I read recently stated that children feel little connection to classic literature because of the strong presence of contemporary authors, who often appear in person or via media to discuss their books. The British Library's website was mentioned as an outstanding resource for reigniting the love for teaching and learning the classics.

TechWife Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 I'd like to read the article you referenced. Do you have a link? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin'sMom Posted May 27, 2014 Author Share Posted May 27, 2014 Here it is, attached as a file. Honestly, the Times Educational Supplement is a topnotch resource. I discovered it by accident while researching something else, and the bunny trails it has led me down are taking hours of delightfully spent time. The British Library resources are incredible, all by themselves. Message me about your thoughts on the article and the sites?
