Master Jane Austen's language from A to Z with an activity based on Pride and Prejudice. As kids read the novel, they find (or are assigned) words that begin with each letter of the alphabet, and create one-page documents that show the definition, a paragraph about its context, and an illustration.

Instructional Ideas

  • For older or more advanced learners, have them do all 26 letters of the alphabet themselves, and possibly compile the best letter page from each learner into a class book
  • Use the lesson as an opportunity to draft an electronic document on a computer lab day
  • Have kids include the passage in the book from which they found the word

Classroom Considerations

  • Examples are very small and hard to see

Pros

  • A fun, collaborative project
  • Great way to familiarize kids with the vocabulary from Jane Austen's time period

Cons

  • None
