Description
Teaching high school literature and meeting high school literature standards requires a diverse set of tools. Included in this literature bundle are activities specifically geared toward older students.
In this literature bundle, you'll find activities that will work year after year and with a variety of students for literature circles, independent reading, whole class novels, and more. TEN different literature activities for high school are included.
Specifically included in this high school literature bundle:
Text Analysis Graphic Organizers: Character Analysis and Inferences
Focus on character and theme analysis and their complexity by honing on specific
parts (like motivation) with these graphic organizers.
Literary Analysis Prompts: Digital & Print Literature Writing Prompts
Choose from 25 writing prompts that will work with any piece of literature. These questions specifically move students toward literary analysis. Assign certain questions or allow students to choose their questions.
Digital Literary Analysis Activity: Scaffolded Literary Analysis Activity
Build analysis with digital building blocks. As students begin to "build" their analysis, add more pieces to show connections between literary pieces of any story. This scaffolded literary analysis activity is the perfect starting point for a literary analysis essay or alternative to the literary analysis essay.
