  • Last week I finished reading The Unteachables to my fifth graders. It was a huge hit. Gordon Korman is becoming one of their favorite storytellers.

    Book description (from the publisher):
    The Unteachables are a notorious class of misfits, delinquents, and academic train wrecks. Like Aldo, with anger management issues; Parker, who can’t read; Kiana, who doesn’t even belong in the class-or any class; and Elaine (rhymes with pain). The Unteachables have been removed from the student body and isolated in room 117.
    Their teacher is Mr. Zachary Kermit, the most burned-out teacher in all of Greenwich. He was once a rising star, but his career was shattered by a cheating scandal that still haunts him. After years of phoning it in, he is finally one year away from early retirement. But the superintendent has his own plans to torpedo that idea-and it involves assigning Mr. Kermit to the Unteachables.
    The Unteachables never thought they’d find a teacher who had a worse attitude than they did. And Mr. Kermit never thought he would actually care about teaching again. Over the course of a school year, though, room 117 will experience mayhem, destruction-and maybe even a shot at redemption.

    I still read Gordon Korman as an adult. Unteachables was excellent, all the great Gordon Korman story telling.

    we read it, pretty good feel good redemption type story. starts slow and tedious but picks up midway to the end. korman is a good author, he pushes the emotional buttons at the end of every book. we also read "restart" which is really good.

    What did Barnstormer want to attend in the book?

    I really liked The Unteachables, not as much as Restart. I will read more by him but I think Andrew Clements is the king of school stories.
