Uncharted Territory

A Reader and Guide
A thematic reader and writing guide built for today's high school students

Curated by Jim Burke, an active high school teacher with more than twenty years of teaching experience, this reader―comprised of nonfiction and interspersed with poems and stories―helps students examine questions that are important to them both in and outside of the classroom. Six new writing chapters offer instruction on the entire writing process, while approachable readings, organized thematically, engage students in thoughtful classroom discussion and activities. Designed to be used alone or in conjunction with longer works, Uncharted Territory can easily be incorporated into the classroom, or assigned alongside independent reading.
