  2. Introductions

  3. KWL • What do you already know about the book and how we are using it? • What do want to learn today?

  4. Why are we doing this? • Emphasize reading as an important element of the college experience • Underscore the subtle connections between a wide range of academic disciplines • Encourage and enhance student participation • Create a sense of community • Integrate an academic and social experience into the campus community

  5. What can I do to help? • Having the book as required reading in your courses • Embedding classroom discussion, projects, or assignments based on a theme included in the book • Exploring the notion of identity through “naming”, the way we name ourselves and others • Have students attend or participate in One Book, One Harper events as they relate to themes contained in the book

  6. Sample Lesson- Naming • This would be a great introduction activity to the book • Names tell us a lot about people, places, and even things. • Brainstorm!Think of the reasons why/how we name people

  7. Sample Lesson- Naming • Look at the worksheet in front of you and answer the questions • After everyone is done, we will discuss our answers with the class

  8. Other ideas? • How can you use these different themes in your classroom? • Non-traditional families • Guns and violence • Union/Trade relations • Sexuality • Ableism • Physical deformities • Music • Race relations • Appalachian Culture • Religion • Wilderness skills
