Nonfiction Reading:
Work in groups to learn about
other things that were related to the Yellow Fever epidemic. Your group will have a different nonfiction
topic to work on. Topics that groups may pick from may include the following:
- Yellow Fever (how it impacted the society at that time)
- Free African Society
- Bush Hill
- Dr. Rush
- George Washington
Use the internet or classroom books to research then record information in your interactive journal (this may take a couple of slides).
- Give a brief summary of what you have found about your topic.
- What was the main point the authors wanted you to get from your findings?
- Which points did you disagree or find difficult to believe? Why?
- How does this influence your ideas or how does this give you a better understanding of the novel we are reading?
