I. Overview:

This unit will cover how people are different from one another as well as differences that
are found in society. The movie Les Miserables will serve as the anchor text for the unit as it
emphasizes personal and societal differences. The unit will use the text and the theme of
differences to form and explore understandings and interpretations of how humans respond to
differences as well as making connections to their own life as well as the historical context of the
novel, As a film study and a musical, Les Miserables allows students to appreciate a nonprint
text that will be supported by print texts such as lyrics, quotes, and other passages.

II. Rationale:

Differences of opinions, tastes, social classes, gender expression, and race exist in most
societies today. It is important to learn how to best deal with these differences in a constructive
manner. Analyzing the differences that exist in Les Miserables will allow students to further
develop their ability and understandings of literature and language and apply it to their own
lives.
This unit will follow a portfolio style for the assignments where students understand they
have objectives to meet for the unit and are able to choose the type of text to create to meet that
objective. Text forms will be guided enough so students have a direction to follow on what can
be done, but left open so students can choose how to best show their understanding.

III. Objectives/Learner Outcomes: 20-1 & 20-2

● 1.1.1: Form tentative understandings, interpretations, and positions

○ a. generate and experiment with strategies that contribute to forming tentative
understandings, interpretations and positions [for example, posing questions, suspending
prejudgement as appropriate, recognizing that initial interpretations and positions may be
inaccurate and incomplete, and recognizing that texts may be inaccurate, misleading or
ambiguous]
○ b. assess the potential of understandings, interpretations and positions on ideas and
issues communicated by literature and other texts by connecting own and others'
explorations, and by exploring additional aspects of these texts
● 1.2.3: Set personal goals for language growth
○ a. appraise own strengths and weaknesses as a language user and language learner;
select appropriate strategies to increase strengths and address weaknesses; monitor the
effectiveness of selected strategies; and modify selected strategies as needed to
optimize growth [for example, assess growth in writing by using a writing portfolio and
portfolio reflections]

personal communications and community involvement [for example, auditioning for a play
or applying to be a volunteer]

and style]
○ b. assess the appropriateness of own and others' understandings and interpretations of
works of literature and other texts, by referring to the works and texts for supporting or
contradictory evidence

○ e. analyze and assess images in print and nonprint texts in terms of created reality and
appropriateness to purpose and audience
○ f. assess the significance of a text's theme or controlling idea, and the adequacy,
relevance and effectiveness of its supporting details, examples or illustrations, and
content in general

○ a. use terminology appropriate to the forms studied for discussing and appreciating the
effectiveness and artistry of a variety of text forms
○ b. describe the effectiveness of various texts, including media texts, for presenting
feelings, ideas and information, and for evoking response

feelings, ideas and information, and for evoking response
● 3.1.2: Plan inquiry or research, and identify information needs and sources
○ a. reflect on and describe strategies for developing an inquiry or research plan that will
foster understanding, select and monitor appropriate strategies, and modify strategies as
needed to plan inquiry or research effectively [for example, use a research journal to
keep and record reflections on the research process, clarify thinking, revisit initial
perceptions and ask questions that lead to new research]
○ b. select from a repertoire of effective strategies to develop appropriate inquiry or
research plans that will address the topic and satisfy contextual and presentation
 5

requirements [for example, questions within questions, inquiry charts, preliminary

interviews, and consultations with the teacher and/or librarian]

determine and categorize information needs and to guide the collection of required
information [for example, a chart to demonstrate what is already known and what needs
to be learned]

○ c. record information accurately and completely; and document and reference sources,
as appropriate [for example, document direct quotations, others' ideas and arguments,
maps, charts, statistics, pictures and diagrams from books, magazines, bibliographies,
newspapers, audiovisual materials, electronic sources, interviews and films to avoid
plagiarism]
○ d. organize information logically [such as by question, by category, by chronology or by
cause and effect]
○ e. observe guidelines for Internet use [for example, keep passwords, telephone numbers
and addresses confidential; visit appropriate sites; respect copyright; and observe rules
for citing Internet sources, following correct procedures to avoid plagiarism]
● 3.2.2: Evaluate sources, and assess information
○ a. reflect on and describe strategies to evaluate information sources for credibility and
bias and for quality; and select, monitor and modify strategies as needed to evaluate

form
○ c. assess the accuracy, completeness, currency and relevance of information selected
from sources; and assess the appropriateness of the information for purpose
○ d. identify and describe possible biases of sources, and describe the possible effects of

author or organization, the proportion of verifiable facts to generalizations, or the
sponsor/author/purpose/date of a Web site]
● 3.2.3: Form generalizations and conclusions
○ a. form generalizations by integrating new information with prior knowledge
○ b. draw conclusions that are appropriate to findings, reflect own understandings and are

through practice, using various methods
○ a. develop a list of effective vocabulary words and stylistic choices [for example, develop
a list of effective verbs, by listing all the verbs used in own text and replacing frequently
used verbs with new verbs as appropriate]

straightforward denotations to strengthen clarity in informative and persuasive texts, and

patterns; read a section of writing from a favourite author, and note the author's use of the
same and different patterns; and rewrite some sentences in own work to achieve variety,
noting the effect]

VII. Planning for Diversity:

This unit will explore perspectives from various diverse groups such as Indigenous
voices, Black people, those from lower socioeconomic status, and women. Exploring other
perspectives outside the dominant culture is important in forming and challenging
understandings.
Additionally, this unit will allow for differentiation through slightly different outcomes in the
20-1 and 20-2 structure. Further differentiation will be implemented as needed through reduced
requirements on rubrics, accommodations through graphic organizers or educational assistant
help, etc.
