Peter Pan Book Unit

Exciting News!! After receiving such wonderful feedback about my last book study, I have decided to create a second series of posts for the novel Peter Pan. The Plan

Each Monday beginning October 19 and running through March 14, you can pick up one part of the book unit. Saving each lesson for a novel study is a great option. Since students are so familiar with this well-loved American classic, most chapters can be stand-alone lessons. [Chapters 8 and 9 together are especially good stand-alone chapters.] Sir James Matthew Barrie first wrote Peter Pan as a play in 1904. The play was turned into the book Peter and Wendy in 1911 (later called Peter Pan), so it is now in public domain. There is no need to purchase a class set of books because the complete text will be added to the unit plans.

I love all the feedback, e-mails, and messages you sent regarding The Wonderful Wizard of Oz Book Unit. I made a few changes with this series of posts based on your suggestions: Here’s what is new:
