Instructional Ideas
- As a reading comprehension self-assessment, have individuals go through the puzzle once to see how many of the questions they can answer, and then a second time using their books to complete the puzzle
- Have groups critique the strengths and weakness of the puzzle and then craft their own
Classroom Considerations
- Both the prompts and the puzzle are printed on the same page
- Focuses on characters and events rather than the significance of these elements
Pros
- Includes an answer key
