Lesson Plan

Writing Fix: A Literature Inspired Writing Lesson: I Never Knew That!

Curated by ACT

In To Kill a Mockingbird, Scout and Jem discover that their seemingly "feeble" father has an astonishing ability with a rifle. For this assignment, writers will compose a letter to a parent or loved one, asking for a return letter that will reveal something they do not already know about that person. After reading their individual letters, the students will write a narrative, showing what they thought they knew about their subject and how the new information changes their perception of the parent.
