Real-Life Nonconformists!

As we finish our novel, Stargirl, this week, we'll segue into our nonconformist research project. While we work on exploring the life of a nonconformist of our choice, we'll also view the powerful film, Glory Road, based on the true story of the 1966 Texas Western Division I basketball team.

See the links, below, for supporting materials we'll use as we view and discuss this real-life example of nonconformity.
