Common Questions and Comments

"What if parents get upset that I am letting their children read Goosebumps books?"
-Sara This is a reasonable concern and brings up an important point. With frequent communication with families this source of upset can often be avoided. If you have an established relationship with parents you can explain why you allow student choice in books and get their feedback. They may still disagree which is completely fine. Work together to smooth out any wrinkles.

"I don't think kids should be allowed to read scary books at all but my lead teacher doesn't see a problem with it."
-LeRa Consider a compromise, then. Open communication truly is the key with any co-teaching situation and the more willing you are to work through it together the better results you will see.

"There is a child in my class that gets really scared from Goosebumps books. I don't know what to do."
-Yunjie It is important to discuss the scary elements with the child so that they know it is a work of fiction. Reread Page 10 Future Fears for some more detailed information on helping children work through their fears.
