It’s easy to associate read-aloud time with small children sitting criss-cross applesauce on a brightly colored rug with a friendly librarian sharing a picture book with rapt audiences, but it’s far past time we start recognizing that all ages benefit from classroom read alouds. Teenagers especially love to hear books read out loud to them. Here’s a list of perfect high school read alouds to get you started.

Next to a bus, a Christian sisterhood handed out provisions. I helped with the distribution; my water was almost gone and maybe I could earn an extra bottle that way. Each migrant was given three medium bottles of water. And a bag of toiletries for each child, with shampoo and soaps. I pocketed two for the Ecuadorian kids. I’d seen the family raise their hands when the cop said “Ecuador” who knows how many transfers back. I returned to the bus.

Al lado de un autobús, unas cristianas regalaban provisiones. Ayudé a repartir porque se me estaba acabando el agua y, a lo mejor, así me ganaba un pomo extra. A cada migrante le daban tres pomos medianos. Y una bolsita de aseo por niño, con champú y jabones. Escondí dos para los niños ecuatorianos. Vi que alzaron la mano cuando el policía dijo “Ecuador”, no sé cuántos trasbordos antes. Volví al bus. Era tan compacto que nadie había podido llevar su maletín consigo, ni siquiera entre las piernas.

Dairy farms are some of the most dangerous job sites in America. Much of the labor is done by immigrants working on small farms that operate with little safety oversight. This guide will be released in Spanish in several formats to make this information more widely accessible. If you want to receive printed booklets that you or your organization can share with dairy workers in Wisconsin, or if you want to be notified when we post related videos on TikTok and YouTube, sign up here.
