Literary Food Truck Project

Literary Food Truck Project

starters

I have been conducting Book Talk projects with my Dual Enrollment English 12 students since the spring of 2019. With the help of my school librarian and techie teacher bff, I select an overarching theme for the project. Past themes have included YA dystopian lit, "Othering," and fantasy. Within each theme, I create at least four subcategories. These subcategories are how students are divided into interest groups after completing a thematic interest form (to create a copy of the form used in 2021, click here).

Spicing Things Up

In the 2021-2022 school year, I decided to try a new approach to my project by selecting nonfiction as our overarching theme and by hosting a literary food truck festival with my students. For specifics on the 21-22 school year's project, explore the resources, samples, and student and co-educator reviews on this site. 

Please note: This site is currently 👷‍under👷‍♀️construction and will include sample materials, as well as student reviews, for the 2022-2023 school year in the coming months. Be sure to check back for updates!😲🎉
