Essential Question: What can sports teach us about working together?
In this module, students will listen to, read, and view a variety of texts and media that present them with information about the concept of teamwork.
A genre focus on realistic fiction provides students with opportunities to identify literary elements, author's craft, and theme in order to better understand unfamiliar texts. Students will also encounter narrative nonfiction and video to build knowledge across genres.
As students build their vocabulary and synthesize topic knowledge, they will learn more about the way that sports can bring people together to work as a team.
