ELA Unit 3: Living with technology
Dear Families,
In Unit 3: Living with Technology, students will learn about how technology impacts people. they will consider concepts relating to how technology has benefited people and consider criticisms about how it has changed our relationships to one another. Students will read a variety of texts and listen to and view media as they discuss the essential question for the unit.
As a class, in small groups, and independently, students will work to answer the question: Is technology helpful or harmful in our lives?
Here is a list of the articles, excerpts, and stories that we will be reading this unit. We will also supplement our readings with articles and stories from CommonLit and Newsela.
