Resources--activities, quizzes, essay options, discussion questions, etc.--for Ordinary People.
As with all of my unit plans, I do not lay out for you specifically how to teach the unit step-by-step, though in this case a few of the documents do have schedules. Instead, I give you all of my resources--and they are extensive here--and you pick and choose what works for you, in the manner that suits your style and your students best. Having said that, you'll find everything you could possibly need here: activities, quizzes, paper assignments (expository and creative), pre-reading activities, literary criticism, etc. Explore and be creative! Let me know what you come up with.
I thought I would be able to download the Ordinary People resources but after purchasing it I've found that I am unable to. Is there another way to send me the material? I can send you my email address if that would help. Please let me know... thanks.

Absolutely wonderful resource for a new book I am teaching this year. The dollar it cost me is the best money I ever spent! I like the way the unit is really a lot of useable materials rather than impracticable lesson plans. Great job!

Do you have the answers to the multiple choice tests?

I've taught English at high schools in the Chicago suburbs and currently teach as an adjunct Comp/rhetoric instructor at area community colleges. I'm also currently a curriculum and assessment consultant and have worked with ACT, NAGB, McGraw Hill, MacNeil Lehrer Productions, Scott Foresman, and more.
