UNIT 1: Forging a Hero
Integrating Trade Books with
myPerspectives
These titles provide students with another perspective on the topic
of forging a hero, touching upon many of the ideas found within
the unit selections.
Depending on your objectives for the unit, as well as your students’
needs, you may choose to integrate the trade book into the unit in
several ways, including:
- Supplement the unit Form literature circles and have the students
read one of the trade books throughout the course of the unit as
a supplement to the selections and activities. - Substitute for unit selections If you replace unit selections with a
trade book, review the standards taught with those selections.
Teacher Resources that provide practice with all standards are
available. - Extend Independent Learning Extend the unit by replacing
independent reading selections with one of these trade books. - Pacing However you choose to integrate trade books, the Pacing
Guide below offers suggestions for aligning the trade books with
this unit.
