What happens when a tenuous grasp on sanity begins to slip? Compare Edgar Allan Poe's "The Tell-Tale Heart" and Emily Dickinson's "I Felt a Funeral, in my Brain" with a lesson plan focused on developing a common central idea. High schoolers study and organize their materials from the previous 11 lessons in the unit to prepare for an End-of-Unit Assessment writing prompt about the two texts and their thematic connection.
