FIREKEEPER'S DAUGHTER -- Angeline Boulley

Greetings,

If you like a page-turner mystery that explores questions of “identity, loss, and injustice, and also love, joy, connection, friendship, hope, and laughter,” then Angeline Boulley’s Firekeeper’s Daughter is here for you and your students. The characters and questions raised, insights and inspirations received will stay with you long after you close the novel.

This 232-page resource covers all four strands: reading, writing, oral, and media. It develops your students’ critical thinking, creative communication, and teamwork skills through individual work, pair and small group sharing, and whole class discussion. It also saves you time and energy that can then assist you to do what teachers do best – explore, engage, enrich.

Four powerful, progressive elements empower the study: Student Workbook,

Seminar Process, Team Chapter Presentations, and Group Challenges. Plus, there are three evaluation choices: 100-Multiple-Choice Questions with an answer key that quickly tests student knowledge, as well as higher order thinking and writing questions -- “Agree-Disagree-Explain” and Essay Prompts.

Hence, students have multiple ways to showcase their learning.

* Complete the Student Workbook (18-97),

* Actively engage in the Seminar Process as both a participant and facilitator (98-143),

* Actively engage in the Team Presentations and Group Challenges (144-156), and

* Complete some other form or forms of assessment and evaluation (157-188).
