Instructional Ideas

  • Instructors should begin the planning of a unit study of the "Ken Burns in the Classroom Collection" with a close reading of the Educator's Guide linked in the Included Materials section of this review
  • Pare the lesson with  "Hemingway's Influences and Contemporaries," another lesson in the series

Classroom Considerations

  • The lesson is from the "Ken Burns in the Classroom" series
  • Film clips are from the documentary Hemingway by Ken Burns and Lynn Novick

Pros

  • Includes support materials for instructors and pupils
  • After reading Hemingway's "iceberg" comments, class members try their hand at imitating Heminqway's style

Cons
