Integrating Poetry and "To Kill a Mockingbird."
Jolley, Susan Arpajian
English Journal, v92 n2 p34-40 Nov 2002
Outlines a method of teaching "To Kill a Mockingbird" along with the study of poetry. Notes that this method allows students to consider the themes of courage and developing compassion. Concludes that teaching such a multigenre unit allows students to look for connections among fact and fiction, the past and present, their own lives and literature, and among genres. (PM)
