Create a rigorous activity for Night ch. 3. Include scaffolds for struggling learners. Also include DOK levels for each activity.

This learning resource focuses on Elie Wiesel's "Night" Chapter 3, highlighting the transformation of the protagonist, Eliezer, as he endures the harrowing experiences of the Holocaust. It includes objectives for students to cite textual evidence to analyze character development, word choice, and theme significance. The resource features a graphic organizer for character analysis, where students describe Eliezer's identity and priorities before and after arriving at concentration camps. It prompts students to analyze the impact of specific phrases on tone and theme development, encourages guided practice with word choice, and ultimately requires synthesis of their understanding through writing tasks about the evolving relationship between Eliezer and his father. The overall aim is to deepen comprehension of the themes of survival and human nature in the context of trauma.
