Loved the variety and depth of materials! I used this for my maternity leave. My sub LOVED it and I continued it when I returned.

Well done. Your effort is appreciated. It seems like you spent quite a bit of time creating and editing these study guides. My students will benefit from your care and attention to detail.

This is a great package! Plenty of information to get me started on the unit. However, there is an issue. 92% of African Americans lived in the south and not in the north. Other than that, I found this to be extremely useful!

Hi Kristen,
Thanks for the feedback. I actually had another teacher note that before, and I totally thought I uploaded the corrected file! Thanks for letting me know. I will upload the new/corrected file that reflects the fix. Thanks again for the purchase!

This material is very helpful to get me started with this book. It is very thorough and has many activities. In particular, the number of readings on the context and background are very helpful. However, I believe I found an innacurate piece of information on one of the historical background pages, which makes the otherwise helpful page difficult to use in the classroom. On the page describing The Great Migration it says: "When the Emancipation Proclamation was signed, approximately 92% of the African American population lived in the North or Midwest." This is not accurate nor does it make sense with the information presented in the rest of the paragraph. Has this been looked at? Or am I missing something?
Thanks,
Elizabeth

WOW! Thanks Elizabeth, for the catch. It actually should read "When the Emancipation Proclaimation was signed, approximately 92% of the African-American population lived in the South." (This is according to the Library of Congress.) Clearly, that was a typo which will be corrected ASAP. Thanks again.

Love your work...I feel like a better teacher. I spend more time teaching, enjoying lessons and really helping my students understand where we are going. Do you have lessons for The Firm by John Grisham, Wuthering Heights, Much Ado About Nothing, or Jane. Thank you for your talent and your time.

Hello! I am so happy that you are feeling like a better teacher...what a fabulous compliment! Unfortunately, I don't have anything for any of those titles. I hate when that happens!! We are working diligently to write more materials, but the process is slow-going :) I will certainly add your requests to our request list. Thank you so much for taking the time to find out, though. Thanks for being a customer! - Kristen

Grades Taught:

Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, Eighth, Ninth, Tenth, Eleventh, Twelfth, Homeschooler

Subject Area:

English Language Arts, Writing-Essays, Literature

Secondary Solutions is the endeavor of a high school English teacher who could never seem to find appropriate materials to help her students master the necessary concepts at the secondary level. She grew tired of spending countless hours researching, creating, writing, and revising lesson plans, worksheets, quizzes, tests and extension activities to motivate and inspire her students, and at the same time, address those ominous content standards! Before the inception of Secondary Solutions, materials that were available were either juvenile in nature, skimpy in content, or were moderately engaging activities that did not come close to meeting the content standards on which her students were being tested. Frustrated and tired of trying to get by with inappropriate, inane lessons, she finally decided that if the right materials were going to be available to her and other teachers, she was going to have to make them herself! Mrs. Bowers set to work to create one of the most comprehensive and innovative Literature Guide sets on the market. Joined by a middle school teacher with 21 years of secondary school experience, Secondary Solutions began, and has matured into a specialized team of intermediate and secondary teachers who have developed for you a set of materials unsurpassed by all others. Mrs. Bowers, Founder and President of Secondary Solutions, is now currently running Secondary Solutions from home while she raises her precocious four year old daughter!
