Have you ever felt like dystopia is the genre that just keeps on giving? In part two of our dystopia series, we focus on the essential skills that make these texts come alive in your classroom, showing why depth beats covering everything superficially. We explore how teaching students to notice author moves like juxtaposition helps them analyze tension, themes, and contrasts, keeping analysis at the heart of your unit. Plus, we share practical tips for streamlining your dystopia units, staying focused, and even embracing a little boredom to spark creativity. Hang tight for our next episode, packed with new text recommendations and ideas to refresh your curriculum!Resources:<ul><li><a href='https://www.youtube.com/@bravenewteaching/videos'>NEW: Watch BNT episodes on YouTube!</a></li><li><a href='https://shop.bravenewteaching.com/dystopia'>Teaching Dystopia Workshop</a></li><li><a href='https://www.bravenewteaching.com/favorites'>Shop Our Faves</a>.</li><li><a href='https://www.bravenewteaching.com/home/episode272'>Episode 272, Teaching Dystopia: New Essential Questions to Try</a></li></ul>Related Episodes:<ul><li><a href='https://www.bravenewteaching.com/home/episode61?rq=dystopia'>Episode 61, Living in a Dystopian World</a></li><li><a href='https://www.bravenewteaching.com/home/essential-question-workshop?rq=dystopia'>Episode 81, Essential Question Workshop: Dystopia (Woohoo!)</a></li><li><a href='https://www.bravenewteaching.com/home/episode171?rq=dystopia'>Episode 171, New Dystopian Texts & Supplements for Your ELA Classroom</a></li><li><a href='https://www.bravenewteaching.com/home/episode172?rq=dystopia'>Episode 172, 3 Secrets to Teaching Dystopia</a></li></ul>SHOW NOTES: <a href='https://www.bravenewteaching.com/home/episode273'>https://www.bravenewteaching.com/home/episode273</a><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2131293/open_sms">"Send us a message - please include your contact information so we can chat soon!"</a>Get your FREE Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs gateway lesson: <a href="http://shop.bravenewteaching.com/cloudy">shop.bravenewteaching.com/cloudy</a><a href="https://www.curriculumrehab.com/course">Check out Curriculum Rehab here!</a><a rel="payment" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/2131293/supporters/new">Support the show</a>📚 BNT PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT & RESOURCES 👩‍💻 <ul> <li><a href='https://shop.bravenewteaching.com/happyhour'>Join Happy Hour!</a></li> <li><a href='https://www.curriculumrehab.com/course'>Curriculum Rehab</a></li> <li><a href='https://shop.bravenewteaching.com/masterclass'>Down with the Reading Quiz</a></li> <li><a href='https://shop.bravenewteaching.com/'>Shop the BNT Resource Library</a></li> <li><a href='https://www.instagram.com/bravenewteaching/'>Connect with us on Instagram @bravenewteaching</a></li> <li>Subscribe to our <a href='https://www.youtube.com/@TheCaffeinatedClassroom'>YouTube Channel</a> </li> </ul>
