This 4-page pre-reading handout provides students with important background information for understanding William Shakespeare's Julius Caesar.

Learning about the history of the Roman Republic will provide students with the contextual information necessary for understanding certain lines in Shakespeare's Julius Caesar. You could have students read this handout for homework before starting the play; or you could have students read the handout aloud together in class before giving them the comprehension check worksheet.

As students read their independent reading/ reading workshop book over the course of the week, they will select 5 words or phrases that the author used that stood out to them, or had a particularly strong impact. They will put the 5 words, definitions, and an analysis of how the author used them onto one piece of blank paper. The end result will be one page of visually appealing information. I used this for independent reading, but you could use it for a specific novel or even literature circles. The file contains directions for you to copy or post, Success Criteria, and a scoring rubric.

This digital assignment is PERFECT for use during Distance Learning. Students can view the requirements and the rubric in this PDF, then create and submit their final product through Google Classroom or whatever way you use for your students!

This 2-page assignment requires students to make an inference and a prediction based on 6 quotes pulled from pages 69-88, which is the first half of chapter 4. They make predictions and inferences about TJ's character, TJ and Stacey's friendship, Mr. Morrison's character, the situation with Mr. Tatum, When TJ "goes back for his cap", and the incident at the Wallace Store based on quotes from the text. You could have them do it while reading individually, with a partner, or in a small group. It could be done during or after reading the assigned pages.

The following file contains 8 text-based questions that require students to infer, analyze, recall, predict, and support their answers. The directions state the students need to use text evidence to back up their answers. This set of questions pertains to chapters 9, 10, and 11 of The Giver. An answer key is included.

Background: Due to the first person limited narrator S.E. Hinton used in The Outsiders, the Socs are mostly silent. We are very aware of the greasers’ point of view and of their problems and concerns, but the Socs remain aloof and mysterious. Luckily, we hear from two important Socs—Cherry and Randy—who help us come to a better understanding of what it’s like to be a Soc.

This worksheet requires students to analyze quotes from Cherry and Randy, as well as the conversation Pony has with Randy on p. 115-118. It is best completed after reading chapter 7. It ends with a question that relates what the students have learned during this chapter to the main conflict of the novel.

You could use this as homework or classwork, and have students do it individually or with a partner/ small group. I've included an answer key for your convenience!

This product bundles all of the products I have in my store for S.E. Hinton's The Outsiders. You'll get everything from characterization activities to a creative narrative writing assignment to an analysis of "Nothing Gold Can Stay" to a final assessment!
Please check out the individual products for the details. Thank you so much! Let me know if you have any questions!

This product bundles all of my Roll of Thunder products together at a discount! You'll have 5 reading check quizzes, individual chapter activities, a Socratic Seminar, and even a movie viewing guide!

This product features 20 generic essay prompts that will work for any novel. They can be used within the classroom and for distance learning.

These prompts are differentiated so that they appeal to all learners and give all students a chance to shine in their essay writing! After years of tweaking my essay prompts, I have created questions that are thoughtful and concise so that in turn, they reap excellent student responses.

Example: How reliable is the narrator of your novel? Is the reader able to fully trust him/her? Why or why not? Support your answer with three specific and relevant details from the text.

Essay prompts focus on literary analysis and are recommended for middle and high school students.
