Yesterday I posted eleven short research worksheets on famous photographers which I wrote for some students interested in the art of photography. Here is a twelfth, this one on the great Gordon Parks.

I recently started a new job at a middle school (which I already regret, but that’s another story), where I teach a couple of students interested in photography. It happens that both of them have a natural gift for composing shots. I wrote these eleven worksheets on famous photographers for English and study skills instruction for these kids.
These documents are simple research templates to be used with the internet. I suspect I will never use these again, but I also suspect that someone, somewhere, might also get some use out of them. Most of the major American photographers are represented, and I did the best I could to distribute evenly between men and women. You’ll find a worksheet on the legendary Robert Capa, as well as Vivian Maier, the subject of a fascinating documentary which I have watched four times because I can’t get over the richness of Ms. Maier’s story.

OK, wrapping up on a Wednesday afternoon, here is a lesson plan on obsessive-compulsive disorder. You’ll need this short reading and this vocabulary-building and comprehension worksheet to teach this material.

Nota bene that this has tended to be high-interest material among the students I’ve taught over the years, which is why I tagged it as such.

Were you aware that Charles R. Drew, a black man, discovered that blood plasma could last over time if it were kept cool? I wasn’t until I began using this Everyday Edit worksheet on him about ten years ago. If you’d like more of these, you can find them at Education World, where you can actually take for free a whole year’s supply of them.
If you find typos in this document, fix them, for heaven’s sake! It’s an Everyday Edit worksheet….
