This is the first week of an
English language arts unit on picture books that examines the life
experiences of authors and how it impacts their work.
It is designed for 8th grade ELA
students in a HyFlex/HiFlex program. Students are able to participate in the active
portion of the lessons in-person, online synchronously or online
asynchronously. The active class time portion of each lesson is 12 minutes
long. Students are expected to devote an additional 48 minutes to work outside
of class for each lesson.
The lessons satisfy NYS 8th Grade ELA Learning Standards and correlate with the NYS Learning Standards for Social Studies 8th Grade Framework.
