- Bring into a novel unit about family roles and relationships
- Encourage older or more advanced learners to read the entire novel during summer vacation or a long school break and to reread the critical chapters during the unit

Pros
- Provides a writing prompt for an exit ticket or homework assignment
- Prompts tenth graders to examine their progress according to the Common Core standards
