This skill combined with comprehension questions on DOK Levels 1, 2, & 3 leads students to think deeply about what they have read. (Includes questions from each chapter)Pe

Tess of the D'Urbervilles Writing Assignment
It's probably sacrilege to be an English teacher and admit that a particular novel is a snooze-fest. Several years ago, I was in an English department that required seniors to read Tess of the D'Urbervilles as a novel representative of the Victorian era.
