I took one class at NC State University outside of my program, ECI 537, Children's Literature with Dr. Grifenhagen. I took this class before starting my formal master's program because I did not have the opportunity to study children's literature in my undergraduate work because I had focused on young adult literature as part of my adolescent education program. |
The final project for this class involved designing a genre-focused thematic unit and needed to incorporate many of the concepts we had learned throughout the class, such as creating text sets and providing quality choice assignments. See below for my Multi-Genre Project thematic unit with a focus on overcoming adversity.
