The Doll Instructional Guide

This instructional guide contains lesson plans for middle (Grades 6 – 8) and high school (Grades 9 – 12).  This guide follows the national standards for English language arts and therefore, is aligned with individual state’s curriculum.  The guide contains a character development and a social studies component.  The order of lessons is at the discretion of the teacher, therefore, lessons, though written in sequential order, can be taught singularly or grouped.  It is our hope that this guide will enable you to bring the work of Chesnutt to this generation and assist with instilling a sense of humanity in all of your students.

Charles W. Chestnutt, author, was born at Cleveland, Ohio, June 20th, 1858, son of Andrew J. and Maria (Sampson) Chestnutt. Both his parents were natives of North Carolina. He attended the public schools of Cleveland until his father, after serving four years in the Union Army, returned to the South.
