  2. Recap: What did Gurdon & Alexie say about the current state of YA Lit? What’s your response to what they said? What interesting did you find on ECNing? What questions remain unaswered from previous weeks?

  3. YA Historical Fiction http://annrinaldi.net/home.htm http://www.karencushman.com/index.html http://www.readcarolyn.com/works.htm http://www.historicalnovels.info/Young-Adult-Historical-Novels.html But what do we DO with these books?

  4. How might you teach this book in ELA? How might you use this book in ELA? How might you use the book to team with a Social Studies teacher for a social studies unit that include ELA standards?

  5. Multicultural lit: titles? As with historical fiction, you could use multicultural lit – fiction or nonfiction – in ELA or Social Studies classes. What are some possible uses?

  6. Taking Stock: We have six sessions left (plus YALLFest); what questions are lingering, or for what activities do we need to devote some class time? Next week: Book reviews for book club selections 1 & 2 due.
