Fiction in the FACS Classroom

Created to facilitate incorporating reading into the FACS curriculum, A Novel Approach to FACS will make it easy for both you and your students to blend the two subject areas.  Based on twelve works of teen fiction, this extensive curriculum resource includes activities related to all FACS content areas.  Formatted to be adaptable to every FACS classroom, the activities can easily be used for an entire class or individual students.  I think you're going to find this new FACS reading curriculum a great addition to your resource collection.

To read a synopsis of each of the novels featured in A Novel Approach to FACS, click on each book title. 

This fun and eclectic collection of novels features works suitable for younger readers through teens and young adults.  Some of the titles are recently published while a couple are old favorites.  I think your students will enjoy cooking, crocheting, knitting, sewing, and designing their way through these great books!  Enjoy!
