This blog is devoted to exploring the connection between the secondary Social Studies and English classrooms. We aim to discuss relevant literature that bridges the content between the two subject areas. We look forward to hearing your ideas and suggestions about the literature and the ways it can be used in the classroom.

Princess Sultana's Daughters
Jean Sasson's sequel in the Princess triology, Princess Sultana's Daughters is an exhilerating sequel. Sasson takes the reader through a journey of fundamentalism, mental illness as well as the gender inferiority Sultana and her daughters face as a female. The detail of the Muslim Hajj is eye opening, as well as an increased same sex relationships as a result of the restrictions placed on mix gender relationships.
There are many opportunities for learning in this book just as Sasson's first book in the Princess triology. Please check it out!!! SOOOOOOO GOOOD!!!!
