Description
Your learners will enjoy the rigor and creativity of our engaging activities built from best teaching practices. We want to make your lesson planning journey easy, so you can focus on your expertise. This novel study includes a curriculum map pacing guide that offers our day-by-day suggestion for how to plan out your weeks of lessons. Our pedagogy section explains the instructive idea behind the activity, gives ideas for implementation, and aligns it to the standards. We’ve filmed some training videos on (1) how to assemble a Novel Analysis Packet that is unique to the academic needs of your learners and (2) how to effectively use our Quickwrite writing prompts.
To make your digital experience smooth, we include instructions (w/ screenshots!) of how to download and organize your resources in Google Drive and Microsoft OneDrive. We’ve added Google Forms versions of each activity that auto-corrects their responses using a suggested answer key (which you can adjust afterward or modify your answer key) and compiles grades into a spreadsheet with learners’ names and class periods to make things easier for you to grade all in one place (some types of question aren’t able to auto-grade, though, because of the short-answer format).

WHAT OTHER TEACHERS ARE SAYING ABOUT THIS LITERATURE RESOURCE
♥ Great materials with an up to date visual appeal. I have been working with this play for 10 years, and I am excited to have some materials to freshen up the unit. Thank for putting this all together!
♥ As always, this is a fantastically thorough resource. I’ve used your unit packages for two others units: Night and Unwind. I cannot express how much these make my life easier. Instead of getting bogged down in preparation, which I tend to do when I’m teaching a certain course for the first time, I can stay excited and that’s very obvious to my students. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
♥ Love this! It’s visually interesting and very well done. I am budgeting for other content from this author. This is TOP-notch.
♥ There’s so much here that I haven’t had time to go through it all yet, but as I scroll through the zip file and browse, I’m overwhelmed by the possibilities. This is a rich
resource indeed. Thanks for adding the great teacher guides, too!
