Tracing the Idea of Fish Depletion: Chapter 1


Description

This lesson is similar in structure to Lessons 1–3. Students read a new excerpt of World without Fish for the gist and then answer text-dependent questions to dig deeper into the text and analyze how Mark Kurlansky illustrates and elaborates on the idea of fish depletion in Chapter 1. The content of Chapter 1 is a worst-case scenario, so emphasize to students that this is a “could” situation rather than something that will happen, and that these are just ideas presented by one person.
