12th Grade English Language Arts Projects (by date, latest first)

Students will fill these pages in response to any novel they are reading, whether independently or as part of a whole class reading assignment. Each Project includes a student page with instructions and directions to complete each journal page, as well as a grading rubric to use these journal pages as a whole novel project. You could also use these pages individually and pick ones to use for a specific concept to teach or reflect on. Level one is geared toward middle school-aged students or those who require additional support or guidance with a reflective journal piece. Level two is intended for high school students and requires more in-depth analysis and writing skills. Both levels are included in this product, allowing you to choose the level that is most suitable for your students or to mix and match as needed (note that the grading rubric will not apply if you combine pages from one level with those from another).

Reading Journal Project 1: This level is intended for middle school students or can be used as a less in-depth study as Project 2 is.

Included Pages:

• Journal Cover Page
• Book Overview
• Characters
• Main Character Spotlight
• Plot Outline
• Theme & Setting
• Conflict
• Reflection Questions

Reading Journal Project 2: This level is designed for high school students or those seeking a more in-depth study than Project 1.

**Included Pages:                                                                                                      **

• Journal Cover Page
• Book Overview
• Book Summary Page
• Character Overview
• Character Comparison
• Main Character Analysis
• Plot Outline
• Main Idea and Theme
• Conflict
• Reflection Questions

Utilize any of these three summary pages as a way for students to record summaries of a chapter in any novel they read.

Instruct students to complete the pages as needed.

These are the directions I typically give for filling out summaries:

Print off as many pages as your student will need to complete chapter summaries for each chapter in their book or each assigned section of their reading in order to summarize their book accurately.

I have also provided a cover page, allowing students to collect all their pages together and submit a completed project. A basic rubric is included as well.

Bring authentic Indigenous knowledge into your classroom with this thoughtful, respectful, and engaging literacy and cultural assignment on Anishinaabek Medicine Bags. Perfect for middle or high school classrooms, this activity introduces students to the cultural and spiritual significance of medicine bags in Anishinaabe (Ojibwe) tradition, while encouraging personal reflection and creative expression.

What’s Included:

• A clear and concise explanation of the origin and significance of medicine bags in Anishinaabe culture
• Examples of traditional medicines and their spiritual uses
• Guided reflection questions that promote critical thinking and personal connections
• A design component where students sketch and plan their own symbolic medicine bag
• Culturally appropriate prompts emphasizing respect and understanding
• Embedded video links for supplemental learning

Learning Goals:

• Build cultural awareness and sensitivity around Indigenous practices
• Foster self-reflection and identity-building
• Integrate literacy skills through reading comprehension, written responses, and personal expression
• Support Truth and Reconciliation education in a meaningful and respectful way

Ideal for:

• Grade 7–10 English, Social Studies, Indigenous Studies, or Character Education
• Teachers seeking a culturally responsive resource that honours Indigenous voices
• Classrooms working toward meeting FNMI (First Nations, Métis, Inuit) curriculum expectations or Calls to Action

This resource was created with cultural sensitivity and educational integrity in mind. It encourages students to approach Indigenous traditions with the respect they deserve and deepens their understanding of spiritual and natural connections in Anishinaabe life.

Have your students explore the Protest Movements of the 1960’s by becoming an author of a textbook; whose job is to research, write, and creatively craft a chapter that will both inform and engage its readers regarding a protest movement of this era of time. Using Google Slides, students will be assigned one of the six following protest movements from which to research and create their chapter on:

• The United Farm Workers (UFW)
• The Anti-Vietnam War movement
• The Women’s movement
• The Gay Rights movement
• The Environmental movement
• The American Indian movement (AIM)

Using an inquiry based approach, the accompanied Slide Presentation will first have students explore the cause and effect relationship of how these protest movements came to exist in America during this period of time. The latter portion of the presentation will provide students with an overview of the chapter project with student examples. The final activity will involve students sharing their chapter with their classmates, and completing a Venn Diagram that will serve to critically compare the six different protest movements.

This lesson/project easily lends itself to having a sub take over as well!
