For my text satellite, I chose to use the book Don Quixote.  This book has many themes that would be great to use in the classroom.  Some of them include friendship, loyalty, and sanity.  With this novel, we will look at the Broadway show Man of La Mancha.  We will also look at the film version of Don Quixote.  To go along with the novel, we are also going to listen to music from the Broadway show and some Spanish theme music to get into the mind set for the novel.  Also, to go along with this novel, I chose a short story by Edgar Allen Poe and some images/art to tie into the theme of sanity.   We will then move into our nonfiction part.  We will look at the life of Silvia Plath.  While looking at her, we will read The Bell Jar and follow that with some poetry by Silvia Plath.  Again, this is to tie in sanity.  Last, we will watch the movie 50 First Dates to tie in loyalty and friendship.  I think all of these pieces tie well together and would make a very interesting unit!
