More About the Author

I am an inventor who works mainly in words, but also in sound and images.

You can follow me on Twitter as AWriterReads and/or RogueResearcher.

Always trying to bring something new and unique to my work, I have made many different things, including 11 books, the libretto for the opera "Kiravanu" (music by James Humberstone) that premiered in Sydney in September, 2008; a setting of an excerpted version of W. H. Auden's "For the Time Being: A Christmas Oratorio" for choir, soloists, brass quintet, and harp; the nearly 1700 international worksheets for the Sibelius Notation Software Worksheet Creator, based on the music curricula of the US, UK, AU, NZ, and Canada; and a collage interpretations of portions of Gabriela Mistral's "Decalogo del artista."

This review is from: Lord of the Flies: A Teaching Guide (Discovering Literature Series, Challenging Level) (Perfect Paperback)

Buying novel guides from publishers can be pretty hit and miss. Most of the activites are either too juvenile or need extensive modification. This book, however, is quite useful. The lessons are easily adaptable to multiple levels and cover important skills students should be developing. There are no real worksheets, but lots of information that can be turned into close reading activities, research projects, and group projects. I had to put together a quick unit on Lord of the Flies for a summer class, and this manual really simplified things for me.
