Grade 9 ELA, Making Evidence-Based Claims Literary Technique Unit: Ernest Hemingway

Ernest Hemingway (Photograph Collection, John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum, Boston)

Overview
The Grades 9-12 Making EBC about Literary Technique Units adapt the Making EBC Framework for teaching claim-making about the effects of authorial choice and craft on the meaning of literary texts. The units are built on literary texts from the NYSED 9-12 Text List.

This unit develops students’ abilities to make evidence-based claims about literary technique through activities based on a close reading of Ernest Hemingway’s “The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber.”

Unit Components
The unit components are divided into separate PDF files for ease of use. The files may be downloaded individually or in a single zip file.
