Classroom Considerations
- In the previous lesson in this series, pupils read the story and responded to some questions for homework; if you use the lesson on its own, you will likely still need them to read the story before beginning, especially since the lesson begins with a quiz
- The presentation introducing Ernest Hemingway is not included, so you may wish to find one in the Lesson Planet collection or create your own
Pros
- Comes with a script for the dramatic reading, the quiz, a definition of white elephant, and a link to a video clip including information about Hemingway
Cons
- Some materials are not included; see the Teacher Tips for more information and suggestions
