Where fantasy lends itself to inspiration and truth glimmers on a backdrop of magic T.A. Barron stirs the imaginations of children and adults alike. The epic tales of this Nautilus Award winning author including the acclaimed The Lost Years of Merlin and The Great Tree of Avalon have child heroes at their heart. Good and evil, love and war, history and prophesy, idealism and reality, elves and trolls all find their place as tools for teaching. Through these 6th through 8th grade LessonPlans teachers share with students the importance of symbolism and detail as children investigate, reason, articulate, and explore their own creativity. With nature as the greatest teacher, this integrated, project-based curriculum engages children. Theyre compelled to experience the sensory power of their surroundings, follow their passions, make fantasy a vehicle for storytelling, and realize their dreams in the world beyond the classroom.
