Discussion Guide Born Grown: Mentee/Student Edition - Paperback

by Jo Lynn (Author)

Dr. Jo Evans Lynn, a National Board Certified master teacher, presents a discussion guide for the book Born Grown: The Making of Travis C. Burrell, which uses her more than 37 years of teaching the book's target audience. She says, "I quickly learned that my success teaching these boys and young men depended on my willingness to learn from them and to understand how they learned and what they needed to succeed. I learned that they were not broken and in need of "fixing" but made or put together differently. For many young readers, this book will be the first with characters with whom they can identify. The activities help readers share not only the book but themselves with the group. The discussion guide ensures that even mentors and teachers from other backgrounds can share the book with them.
