Description
Get your learners thinking! Our PRINT AND DIGITAL The Catcher in the Rye Novel Study Unit Plan has the activities and quizzes you need to teach a 6-week novel study -- pre-reading questions, characters, vocabulary, and more. You'll love the "print-and-go" activities in slideshow and .pdf, AND the same fun activities converted and optimized for digital learning (517+ pages and slides -- 237+ print and 280+ digital Google Drive).
⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ And don't forget the easy-grade Google Forms!
Get your learners enjoying the rigor and creativity of our engaging activities built from best teaching practices. We want to make your lesson plan journey easy, so you can focus on your expertise. This literature guide includes a curriculum map pacing guide that offers our day-by-day suggestion for how to plan out your weeks of fun activities.
Our pedagogy section explains the instructive idea behind the activity, gives ideas for implementation, and aligns the lesson plan to the standards. We've filmed some training videos on (1) how to assemble a Novel Analysis Packet that is unique to the academic needs of your learners and (2) how to effectively use our Quickwrite writing prompts.
To make your digital experience smooth, we include instructions (w/ screenshots!) of how to download and organize your activities in Google Drive and Microsoft OneDrive. We've added easy-grade Google Forms versions of each activity that auto-corrects their responses using a suggested answer key (which you can adjust afterward or modify your answer key) and compiles grades into a spreadsheet with learners' names and class periods to make things easier for you to grade all in one place (some types of questions aren't able to auto-grade, though, because of the short-answer format).
