Who am I? Pupils work to answer this question through a unit that explores personal narratives and identity. Exit tickets for activities that examine different poems, short stories, and autobiographical writing serve as prewriting for their own personal narratives. During the drafting stages of the unit, lessons are structured as mini-workshops to provide individualized instruction for scholars. The unit also comes complete with a peer review activity.
