“Some Crazy Cliff” is meant to be a comprehensive learning unit focused on developing people’s understanding of The Catcher in the Rye and the challenge individuals can face from society’s and life’s pressures.
A complete “Understanding by Design” unit plan can be downloaded. It includes targeted “understandings,” essential questions and assessments linked to these and the learning activities in this Web site. The UbD unit was developed using Edutech’s Unit Planner in its Web-based and iPad App versions.
