At the end of each chapter, you’ll find high-interest lesson
plans, correlated to the Common Core ELA/Literacy Standards, that
set the stage for long-term positive impacts. Students will read

integrate information from various texts and make connections to
their own lives, hopes and dreams―a more powerful way to learn to
