The Yellow Wall-Paper Close Reading Annotations grades 9-12 AP IB

Much like her masterpiece "The Yellow Wall-Paper, " Charlotte Perkins Gilman was ahead of her time. Modern readers will feel and her narrator's frustration as her husband's "resting cure" drives her mad. This text is becoming a staple of AP Literature and Composition and International Baccalaureate classes for its skillful writing and skewering of the patriarchy.

This resource includes the following:

• Book Cover Poster for Classroom Display
• Student Copy of the Text (easy reading 12 point font and numbered lines)
• Suggested Annotation Copy of the Text (Answer Key)
• (1) 10 question multiple choice quiz aligned to AP Literature and Composition standards with ANSWE KEY
• (1) Standardized Essay Stable Prompt with suggested content key

This resource works best for a close reading lesson(s). It can be used as a traditional paper-based assignment or a digital activity. The Student Copy contains guided questions that focus on plot, setting, characterization, literary elements, and literary devices to prepare your students for standardized testing. The “Discussion” questions are intended for class discussion, while the “questions” are intended for students to write their own answers alongside the text. The assessments are perfect for standardized testing preparation and the answer keys ease the scoring process.

I am passionate about sharing my love for reading with young adults and helping them to become lifelong learners.

Please consider leaving feedback to help me improve my resource quality.

Happy reading and annotating!
