American Cultural History - 1960 - 1969. The purpose of this web and library guide is to help the user gain a broad understanding and appreciation for the culture and history of the 1960s. In a very small way, this is a bibliographic essay. While there is no way we can link to everything, we have attempted to find areas of special interest and to select information that we hold dear today - movies we watch, songs we sing, events that move us, people we admire. To see the whole picture, we encourage users to browse all the way through this page and then visit the suggested links for more information on the decade. We feel the best way to immerse oneself in a topic is to use both Internet and the library.

Architecture in the sixties was undergoing a refinement of Modernism and a move to an even more streamlined contemporary look.

Hinton’s novel The Outsiders completely, they must understand the music of the time and how it relates to the novel’s main characters. In the novel, different groups of characters emerge and Hinton distinguishes these groups by associating them with musicians of the time.

She realtes The Beatles to the Socs, Elvis Presley to the Greasers, and Hank Williams, Sr. to a rougher subculture of Greasers. Unfortunately, many students are not familiar enough with these early popular music artists to grasp Hinton’s use of them in her novel. Therefore, in this lesson, students will gain an understanding of these and other musicians and how they relate to the novel’s themes of forbidden love, friendship, and social ostracism. Objectives Students will be able to: Recognize themes in The Outsiders and popular music.Recognize social ostracism in their own lives.Recognize different genres of popular music.

I showed "The Outsiders" today. There are so many things that make this day bittersweet each year. First of all, Patrick Swayze is no longer with us. The boys all look so young and invincible in the movie, and now one of them is dead. But, I digress. As I have previously posted, I use guided inquiry as the base for all of my units of study. 1. 2. After introducing the guiding questions, we do a peer relationships opinionaire. The book can be split up easily: six sets of two chapters. Another great activity to do with this book/unit is a grid activity I've adapted from the wonderful book Speaking Volumes: How To Get Students Discussing Books and Much More by Barry Gilmore (Heinemann, 2006).

Tomorrow, we're writing six word memoirs on peer relations, using this book as our guide: Thanks to Anne at Read...Write...Talk for turning me onto this book and activity. This year, I'm trying something new for the final project for this unit. About SE Hinton. S.E. Hinton.com.
