Instructional Ideas

  • Since the activity ideas are general and provide only an overview of the assignment, be sure to supplement with any graphic organizers, writing templates, or rubrics that you have in order to provide for a more comprehensive learning experience

Classroom Considerations

  • There are no answer keys included; however, the types of questions and prompts in the document call for more varied and creative responses. Consider saving examples of student work to use in future years, or designing your own in order to provide more guidance on what the activity/assignment calls for

Pros

  • Engaging, hands-on activity ideas
  • Activities organized according to skills (i.e. characterization, public speaking, point of view, etc.)

Cons

  • None
