This product includes a chart for students to track platitudes as they read the novel. Afterwards, they will choose one of the platitudes to be the subject of a writing assignment. The essay prompt requires them to support the platitude with two examples from the novel and one from their life.

Are you looking for an engaging activity to review the novel with your students? Check out my Question trail for Nothing But the Truth!

https://www.TeachShare.com/Product/Avis-Nothing-But-The-Truth-Question-Trail-Text-Analysis-Activity-4307951

If you need a way to assess your students' understanding of the novel, please check out my Socratic Circle packet! https://www.TeachShare.com/Product/Nothing-But-The-Truth-by-Avi-Socratic-Seminar-packets-and-rubric-4070811

This product has 3 parts. First, there is a hi-lighting activity that requires students to go back into an Argument Essay they've already written and color-code the different essential parts of their writing. You could post this assignment on Google classroom or project the directions onto the Smart Board. The second part is a checklist for Argument Writing. You will make a copy for each student. The students could use it themselves for self- assessment, OR they could switch and use it for peer feedback. Finally, there is a very helpful chart that includes transition words for Argument Writing, including power words, transition words, turnback words, and counter argument words. You can copy this for all students, hang it on the wall, project it on the Smart Board, or post it on Google classroom. My students keep this in their binders to refer to all year long.
