Summary
"Designed for use by language arts teachers in grades 7-12 ... divided into two sections ... The Peace Corps Stories section contains nine Peace Corps texts--around which our lesson plans are organized. Representing a variety of genres (personal narratives, fiction, folktales, and poetry), the texts are grouped under three themes: Heroes and Friends, Perspectives, and No Easy Answers. Curriculum Units contain two separate, but complimentary language arts units, Reading and Responding to Literature and A Reading and Writing Workshop. Both units are standards-based; both use the Understanding by Design curriculum design framework; and both can be adapted for use with secondary students of any grade or ability level.
Reading Level
Grades 7-12.
