Take students on a mountain climbing adventure with Jordan Romero's teen memoir, No Summit Out of Sight: The True Story of the Youngest Person to Climb the Seven Summits. This printable curriculum guide contains questions to engage students in discussion about Jordan's goals, challenges, philosophy, and experiences. As a pre-reading assignment, students will research and present information about each summit: Africa's Mount Kilimanjaro, Australia's Mount Kosciuszko, South America's Aconcagua, North America's Denali, Oceania's Carstensz Pyramid, Mount Everest, Antarctica's Mount Vinson, and Mount Elbrus. Through reading activities, students will define and identify rhetorical devices, summarize salient points, and explain key vocabulary.
