This resource features a digital set of 20 reader response journal prompts to complement your Edgar Allan Poe unit and support distance learning using Google Drive. Each prompt is comprised of a quote from the Master of Suspense himself and a thoughtfully crafted question that encourages students to personally connect and appreciate the timelessness of his musings. Prompts can be used as bell-ringers (most popular and mean the first 5 minutes of every class for more than a month are planned for you!), exit tickets, stations, full class or small group discussion questions, for homework, task cards, sub plans, as a filler activity… the possibilities are endless!
Example of a prompt:
"Who has not, a hundred times, found himself committing a vile or a silly action, for no other reason than because he knows he should not?”
Think of a time when you did something while you were very much aware that you should not be doing it. Why did you do it? What were the consequences of your decision to commit this wrong?
Enjoy using these bell ringers during your study of any of Poe's stories, Halloween, or any time throughout the year when you just need to hear a few wise words from the Father of Horror!
This product requires free accounts through Google Drive and is completely paperless.
