Instructional Ideas
- Use in either a reading or writing unit when focusing on the author's purpose
- Have small groups discuss the development of the plot and the characters in small literature circles
Classroom Considerations
- Lesson 11 in a series about the same short story; if the unit takes too much time, consider condensing or combining lessons
- You can find the story on page 258 in the attached module overview
- Provides a model character tracking tool, but you'll need to find a blank one in previous lessons
Pros
- Focuses on several aspects of the writing process (author's purpose, word choice) and incorporates them into literary analysis
- Comes with a document version of the lesson plan
Cons
- None
