Instructional Ideas

  • Have groups research the standards of beauty in a variety of cultures
  • Ask a class member to prepare a masterful reading of "Solarium," the chapter under study

Classroom Considerations

  • The unit, the second in a module of three, builds on the protocols and routines established in the first unit
  • The ninth in an 11-lesson unit that uses David Mitchell's Black Swan Green as an anchor text

Pros

  • The 13-page packet includes the plan, a vocabulary list, discussion questions with sample responses, worksheets, and a homework assignment

Cons

  • All the lessons in the three-unit module follow the same format and the same routine
