Description: Need some curriculum ideas? Want to teach your best seller dealing with some very controversial ideas? Number of years ago when this book had come out my high school English department decided we would teach it the following year. I spent over 100 hours during the summer preparing curriculum materials, such as extensive vocab lists, and a couple of dozen paired texts to use with the reading. On the night before the unit was to begin , our new administrators, decided the book was too controversial and sent out a letter to parents saying that it would not be taught. And just to make sure that everything was done in a timely fashion, the administration signed our names to these letter without even telling us. That was fun. But that means that I have an unused set of materials that someone else could use their benefit. As you can see, there is a outline for a curriculum to be used in high school. At the bottom of the the quotes that guided the design of the classes. So what I’m willing to offer along with the book is my vocabulary lists and quiz process as well as the two dozen collected paired texts to be used with the novel. Use some use all use none or just use it as a way to crank up your own imagination for how to teach this text. This is a hardcover book with a dust jacket. That’s in very good condition. There are, however, for your benefit circles and checkmarks throughout the book in pencil. All of the vocabulary words are circled so that as you’re reading the text, you know which words the students could be looking up in their Vocabulary sheets. I am a retired teacher, and I’m looking for a good home for the materials that I have collected and created over the years. Let me know if you’re interested in more information about what’s available as far as the paired texts are concerned
