To give you a few ideas of how to approach teaching Monster, I’m listing out what I focus on with my high school students when reading this text. The subject of a teenager in jail and witnessing the horrors of what goes on in jail is certainly appropriate for high school students. It’s one of those books that is accessible for younger audiences but can also be more thoroughly analyzed by older students in high school. This actually makes it perfect for my special education students (and sometimes standard students) who are usually reading at around that level. Because it has a Lexile score of 670L, students at the middle school level can read the text. Monster, by Walter Dean Myers, is a text frequently read in middle school about a 16-year-old boy on trial and facing a life sentence. ![]()
