About this title

Synopsis

Focusing each lesson on a single theme that will engage students of all ages, this guidebook encourages teachers to use the topic of food to bring a lively change of pace to the language arts classroom. Providing a wide range of tools—including word games, writing prompts, and research-oriented activities—this resource applies the skills taught in any English class, middle through high school, in a quirky and accessible manner. Each project engages young writers by inspiring them to play with vocabulary and improve communication skills—an important step in learning to use language skillfully.
