This week in class, we’re reading “Araby” by James Joyce.
“Araby” (1914) is a classic coming-of-age story written by James Joyce. It touches on themes of disillusionment and the consequences of idealism.
As we read, we will be discussing the theme of Growing Up as it relates to the text. We are trying to answer this big question :
“What does it mean to be grown up?”
Ways to support your child:
- Ask your child about this short story at home:
- What was “Araby” about?
- What did you learn about?
- Watch “Araby” by James Joyce: Audiobook at home with your child.
