The Oval Portrait Unit (Close Read, Assessment, and Creative Activity)

A Close Read that covers multiple literary skills including analysis of setting, characters, symbols, figurative language, etc.2. A text-based assessment that isn't just recall questions3. A "Symbolic Portrait" activity where students apply their knowledge of symbols to create a portrait of themselves, a book or movie character, or an original

Classic Book Report Guide/ Instrutions for Students
I use this book report assignment with classic books for the best responses, but it could be used with any fiction book. Review the material with students pointing out the examples and different parts of the report. The examples come from The Pearl which we usually read before assigning the book report. I also sell a writing frame guide.

The Great Gatsby Chapter Writings Assignment: A Journal Project
This is a dialectical journaling assignment that asks students to write a page per chapter. Essentially, students will be exploring their own ideas about the book, using what characters say and do to fuel their opinions. This assignment gives them opportunities to improve their expository writing and develop voice. I encourage students to take risks and to write without worrying about perfect grammar. The important thing is that they write and analyze what's going on.
