My 10th grade ELA students will explore cultural connection with food as the connector. The description from our HQIR for the unit is as follows: Every culture is a stew of the customs, traditions, arts, languages, and institutions of its people. As a result, each culture is unique in its own way. But because everybody needs to eat, food is one place where cultures intersect. Culture has a big impact on what, where, when, and how we eat. Why do people feel strongly about the food they eat? Are we sometimes eating memories of long-ago meals rather than the actual food on the plate in front of us? What can our food choices and preferences tell us about ourselves and our cultures? In this unit, students will think about the unit’s theme and essential question as they focus on the literary period of cross-cultural literature, analyzing the short story “B. Wordsworth,” the informational texts Curry: A Tale of Cooks and Conquerors and “Chinese Cooking,” and the poems “Parsley” and “The Latin Deli: An Ars Poetica.” They will also study the genre of poetry while reading Bashō's haiku, Wordsworth's classic “Lines Written in Early Spring,” Audre Lorde’s heartbreaking “Ethiopia,” and Diane Burns’s nostalgic “Maple Sugaring (in Aunt Alberta’s Backyard).” In addition, students will read across genres. The nonfiction article “The New Food Fights: U.S. Public Divides Over Food Science,” a survey of a recent Pew Study by Cary Funk and Brian Kennedy, will inspire students to think about how food issues divide and unite the American public. I have included the priority unit pacing guide since we are somewhat limited in our time. The readings from that document should be the primary source of content. Help me design a Project-Based Learning unit for this theme and these readings. Keep in mind that students will also be in crunch time for the Kentucky Summative Assessment Reading Test (big state test in May), so we will need to incorporate strategies and skills that will make sure they're ready for the rigors of the test.
