TENTH GRADE ELA UNIT 3: CHANGE CAN BE UNEXPECTED

Unit Overview: The goal of this unit of study is to help students analyze the use of irony, mystery, and surprise in both fiction and non-fiction texts. Students will also be looking at different perspectives of the same event, comparing and analyzing those viewpoints. This is a Common Core unit of study that engages students in collaborative activities, close reading, textual analysis and argumentative writing substantiated with textual evidence. The summative assessment is a test which requires students to apply the skills they have learned in this unit.

Lesson Collaborators: Jennie Fields, Joyce Feuerborn, Amber Lund, and Michelle Holguin, and Jason Crabbe
