But lacking the time or energy to really engage in the research required to plan a great unit, they incorporate a few lackluster biographies and add some short pieces to their plans and leave it at that. The addition of those inane powerpoints, superficial

This fascinating mini unit will take your students through recordings of Zora Neale Hurston singing songs she learned th
