Education
The Literary Freedom Project provides educators with literary arts
lesson plans and workshops based on the content of each issue of
Mosaic. Each plan uses the work by writers of African descent as
a connective tool to a variety of subjects. Our goal is to increase self awareness while promoting
reading and strengthening literacy.
Lesson Plans
Mosaic supplements the editorial
content of each issue with lesson plans that are developed
based on the content of Mosaic. These lesson plans, developed
for secondary school educators, demonstrate how Mosaic’s
content can serve as a connective tool to explore educational
subjects such as history and social studies while also serving
to strengthen literary and increase cultural identity.
Workshops
In March 2010, we will launch a series of
professional-development workshops featuring creative ways for
keeping literature and books valuable sources of knowledge and
creativity in high school education. Our workshops help
educators incorporate literature into existing curricula to
further explore course while strengthening literacy and cultural
identity.
Mosaic Literary Conference The Mosaic Literary Conference presents creative ways for
keeping books and reading valuable sources of knowledge and
creativity. This day of professional-development workshops will help
educators incorporate literature into existing curricula to further
explore course work that focuses on cultures, history, and social
studies.
