Episode description

Today's episode is a re-run of one of our favorites! If you aren’t already on the dystopian band wagon, we’re fairly confident that you will be after this episode. We’ve taught dystopia for YEARS, and it hasn’t lost any steam along the way. Can you say that for other genres?

So, why is dystopia as a specific genre so gosh darn exciting? Why is it something we believe should be in every single ELA classroom? We couldn’t even begin to count the reasons, but to begin, it helps kids understand the society they are growing up in. More importantly, it allows them to begin to build their own options and questions around society. How cool is that?

Today we’re making three solid points on why dystopia is something you need to get behind. Tune in to hear us dive into each of these points:

1. Dystopia is always relevant

2. It’s popular and engaging…hello Hunger Games!

3. It has limitless possibilities
