Instructional Ideas

  • Have learners complete the anticipation guide for homework, then pair them up in class to discuss their answers
  • Encourage young writers to choose one statement to expand into a longer opinion essay

Classroom Considerations

  • Resource was written by a candidate in a teaching program, so it contains heavy instructions and reflection
  • Model how to fill out the chart so learners don't get confused between the before and after sections

Pros

  • Addresses important themes from the novel
  • Statements are thought provoking and can begin strong discussions

Cons

  • None
