Lesson Plan

Writing Fix: A Literature Inspired Writing Lesson: A Time Traveler's Log

Curated by ACT

Students will read chapter four of The Time Machine by H.G. Wells, noting both the time traveler's descriptions of the new world of 800,000 ACE, and the conclusions the main character draws as a 19th century man. Students will think of a time-traveling character and setting (time and place) they will send that character. Students will then create a two-paragraph (minimum) description that focuses on a) interesting details of the setting, and b) what conclusions the time traveler makes in this new time.
