Lesson Sequence for Grade 6
Advanced Personhood

Teachers: This writer expects that some of the students will be very interested in the essays, and will want to read ahead. Of course this should be encouraged! You may wish to create masters of all the handouts before the class begins, and have them copied and bound into booklets to hand out on the first day of class. Do not include those to be handed back in.
