    Description

    As I started teaching English First Peoples in BC (this is also good for any English class which wants to respect Indigenous/First Nations viewpoints such as Ontario's NBE courses), I didn't want to eliminate all the classic literary canon- such as one of my favourites, Fahrenheit 451! I designed this unit to connect the themes of Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury to themes present when discussing Truth & Reconciliation- themes such as:

    1. Oral storytelling as a powerful force of resistance
    2. Questioning authority and government structures
    3. The role of oral storytelling in preserving identity and culture
    4. The importance of community and connection

    In this unit:

    1. A final project for students to have a choice of ways to present their knowledge, with multimedia and traditional written assignments among some of the choices
    2. A lesson comparing and contrasting Western stories narratives to Indigenous Canadian narrative structures (to help them compare and contrast the narratives in Fahrenheit 451 to an Indigenous story- can use this with a Ray Bradbury short story, as well!)
    3. A creative project that promotes character analysis through creating a seating chart for the characters in Fahrenheit 451
    4. An in-class essay with planning pages to help students structure their thoughts and the essay page itself.

    Note: The Novel Study Project and narrative lesson are all found in my "Semester-long bundle". If you already have that, I highly suggest you just pick up the Seating Chart project and In-class essay instead of purchasing this and getting repeat products!
