Teacher Notes Objective: Students will learn how to organize and process information using webbing techniques. Lesson Activities: Each student will recognize and evaluate his/her unique capabilities and accomplishments through the completion of a personal knowledge web. The web will include information on: family; personality; motivation/ambition; appearance; accomplishments; problems or conflicts; and early years. The students will read I Want to Go Home by Gordon Korman as a class. Using the webbing model, students will create personal knowledge webs for main characters, Rudy Miller and Mike Webster. With the accumulated information from webs, students will write an additional chapter into the book, I Want to Go Home. Given the self-knowledge students have, how will they interact with Rudy Miller and Mike Webster? Will they be friends and help create havoc at the camp? Or, will they be on the side of Chip, the counselor, and try to maintain order within the camp? Accommodations: Students who have learning difficulties often find problems with self-esteem. This lesson affirms all students and teaches them to appreciate the special characteristics and unique qualities of others. The teacher will model for all students how webs can be created. Because this is a different way to organize information, students who have difficulty completing the webs will be assigned a 'helping partner' to assist them with the process. Webs are a good, concrete way for students to briefly state information in a way that can be visually seen.

No More Dead Dogs is a very interesting novel by Gordon Korman. The main character is named Wallace Wallace who will never tell a lie. This is especially true when his english teacher asks him to write a review of a book he can't stand: Old Shep, My Pal. His review obviously says very bad thing about the book, and he must serve detention at the rehersals of a school play for this book. Worst of all, this is during his football practice, and he can't play until he writes a proper review. What ...

Hyperion. 213p. c2003. 0-7868-1957-X. $15.99. S In this homage to The Great Gatsby, F. Scott Fitzgerald High has a new student, Jake Garrett, who throws the best parties and is considered the coolest guy in town. He dresses like "he'd just waltzed off the pages of the J. Crew catalog," he drives a Beamer, and he gets off football snaps "like a cruise missile." Every guy wants to be invited to his bashes, and every girl wants to be with him, but he only wants drop-dead gorgeous Didi, the girlfriend of Todd, the school quarterback. Narrator Rick tells the tragic tale as Jake manages to gets together with the girl of his dreams, though she refuses to stop seeing Todd. When violence erupts at a dangerously over-the-top final party, Jake takes the fall for Didi. In the end he is exposed as a lovelorn poseur, a former math geek and term paper writer for cash who has remade his image and plotted for years to win the prize of Didi, only to see it all slip away. Korman, author of Son of the Mob, No More Dead Dogs, and other books for young readers, is an accomplished writer who succeeds in making this plot work in an updated context. The dialog is snappy, and there is humor as well as heartbreak. YAs will recognize the common high school types here and eat up the details of the wild parties. Be sure to bring this to the attention of English teachers, who might enjoy using it in a unit on The Great Gatsby, Paula Rohrlick, KLIATT
