With this practical book, you'll learn effective ways to engage
students in reading and writing by teaching them narrative
nonfiction. By engaging adolescents in narrative, literary, or
creative nonfiction, they can cultivate a greater understanding of
themselves, the world around them, and what it means to feel
empathy for others. This book will guide you to first structure a
reading unit around a narrative nonfiction text, and then develop
lessons and activities for students to craft their own personal
essays. Topics include: Engaging your students in the reading of a
nonfiction narrative with collaborative chapter notes, empathy
check-ins, and a mini-research paper to deepen students'
understanding; Helping your students identify meaningful life
events, recount their experiences creatively, and construct
effective opening and closing lines for their personal essays;
Encouraging your students to use dialogue, outside research, and a
clear plot structure to make their narrative nonfiction more
compelling and polished. The strategies in this book are
supplemented by examples of student work and snapshots from the
author's own classroom. The book also includes interviews with
narrative nonfiction writers MK Asante and Johanna Bear. The
appendices offer additional tips for using narrative nonfiction in
English class, text and online resources for teaching narrative
nonfiction, and a correlation chart between the activities in this
book and the Common Core Standards.
