There are many things that define American popular culture. Whether that be Disney, Batman, etc. When thinking of American culture many people tend to focus on the negative aspects such as the racism, sexism, and homophobia we must face each day.

The instructional setting I work within is set in a rural community, northeast of Indianapolis, IN. This community is made up of mostly farmers and factory workers, so the majority of the students are in the “free and reduced” system for tuition and lunches.

Anne’s Motivation The diary of Anne Frank was a play I had to read in the eighth grade, roughly six years ago. I learned all about the history of the Holocaust and even went to visit the museum in New York City. During that trip, I also saw the production “The Lion King.” I enjoyed it immensely with my peers, and we even were allowed back stage!

We often tend to only read stories that appeal to our interests. I never would have thought I would enjoy a book written by Stephen King. His unique writing style makes stories we would usually find gruesome and disturbing, to be interesting.
