Unit 5

In Unit 5, students will answer the essential question "How can we move from what "just" is to "justice" as they examine social movements. In this unit, students look at authors' style and organization. Students will deeply study a social movement and will write a compare/contrast essay in which they generate an argument about how two authors write about the same social movement. Additionally, students will share their learning about a social movement as they create a statement poster using symbols and images.
