Synopsis

A set of 20 lessons on literature by renowned American writers of various racial and ethnic backgrounds, including Amy Tan and Raymond Carver. The lessons are grouped under three key themes: family relationships, turning points, and community. Each lesson presents objectives, notes, detailed procedures, suggestions for additional study, and highly engaging reproducible activities that encourage readers to develop empathy and insight into other cultures. The final lessons examine Alice Walker's ''Everyday Use,'' inviting students to discover how the unit's three themes unite in this single classic work. Grades 9-12. Bibliography. (CFL570)
