Hello everyone.

I am the middle school English teacher that tagged along with Renee (from Chester)...believe in all you do, and have simply followed along until I am teaching high school English and can join in along with you.

 

I am in search of a teaching unit.

One of you presented at MEA in missoula a couple years ago...a unit on the novel Out of the Dust.  I borrowed the unit and taught with it.  My students loved the novel and the unique approach. 

 

In a recent move to a new classroom two boxes of materials "disappeared".  The unit was in one of the boxes.  I do not remember who I got these materials from. 

 

Does anyone out there have a clue for me as to where I can get a new set of these teaching materials?  I can teach the novel without them, but it would be an injustice.  This unit is just too good!

Thanks for your help.

Amy

I couldn't agree more. When I scored those about five years ago I felt as if I had been to the dentist  or been subjected to a frontal lobotomy.

Montana would be a better place if kids were writing MHP essays and reading them to real audiences.

Nancy Wittacomb from Harlowton created the unit.  She's retired now, but still in the directory.  She'd be glad to hear from you.

I remember that the lady from Harlowton gave the presentation at MEA. What was her name?  Argh!. I can't remember her name, but I am pretty sure she retired last year.  I don't have the unit anymore, otherwise I would send it. Best of luck though. How's it going by the way? I am two minutes away from spring break, so life is good.
