Can't Remember Who Whacked Whom? Just Check the Map on the Web Site - New York Times—Potential lesson plan idea here. Obviously not about
The Sopranos. Would be useful though to create a map of a community or whatever in a reading that students had done and have them plot out the places on the map where significant things happen in the story. Many books are around with maps for the events, from Winnie the Pooh's Hundred Acre Woods to the fly leaf maps in
The Lord of the Rings. After looking at those examples, students could create their own maps as a book report alternative or perhaps a literature circle project students could complete and then share with the class.
