My Secret War: Lesson 5

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Fifth graders determine how freedom comes with rights and responsibilities through literature and poetry about World War II. In this World War II lesson, 5th graders use the letters in the word "infamy" to write an acrostic poem. They read assigned pages in the book My Secret War - The WWII Diary of Madeline Beck while working in literacy groups and completing reflection strips.
