Concept Mapping-To Kill a Mockingbird



Above is a concept map I created using Inspiration for the book To Kill a Mockingbird. I will be teaching this novel in the fall at Farragut, so I was excited to use this project as an opportunity to make a handout I can use with my students. I am happy with the result, and I found the software easy to use once I learned where applications were oriented in the program.

The handout briefly maps the historical context of the novel, and can serve as a template for taking notes or review for students. I may even use the map as a platform for a research project in which they can choose one of the subcategories to look into-we'll see!
