Inducting an Eighth Grader into the Literacy Club.
Daniel, Patricia L.
English Journal, v85 n3 p32-35 Mar 1996
Explains how a teacher uses a mystery novel and an aesthetic approach to literature appreciation, as opposed to one concerned with facts in the text, to engage students and prep them for writing their own mystery stories. Shows how one student in particular overcame her sense of exclusion and felt a part of the "literacy club." (TB)
