Does the writing assignment for the Navajo Code Talkers go along with the book Code Talkers by Joseph Bruchac?

Thank you,

I'm sorry, but I really don't know of the book. One state did contact me about using parts of the unit, perhaps this is what they called it. I just wrote the unit for study because I felt that too many years had gone by without the recognition these heroes deserved. If the book helps, I would certainly use it. I always feel that we need to adapt everything to our own style of teaching and the children who are our students. I hope it helps you.

TEACHING EXPERIENCE

Grades Taught:
Subject Area:

Like most of you reading this profile, I am a lover of children, a care-giver, and a dedicated teacher. I spent 32 years in the classroom before retiring several years ago. During my tenure as a teacher in the elementary grades, I was on a myriad of writing committees, including those that developed the benchmarks for the district. As a literacy coach, I was able to present at both local and state levels at both the Reading and Math conferences. I co-authored a book, Beyond Book Buddies, by Corwin Press. I have also written for the internet and been a critical reader for both Scott Foresman and Corwin Press. As a teacher I wrote and received many grants at both the state and local level. During these last years, I have been writing units of study for my daughter who teaches in Texas. She has been able to use and adapt them for her Special Ed students of high school age, a task for all teachers using units and lessons of study written by others. The method of teaching should be the decision of the teacher and should meet the needs of the students he/she teaches.
