To introduce the thematic ideas in "Flowers for Algernon," have students work through the attached anticipation guide. Print it out and use as a hard copy, or copy it into Google Slides and insert text boxes for students to write. A perfect assignment for your Google Classroom. After, allow students to share and discuss their responses. I often will put Agree on one side of the room and Disagree on the other side of the room and have students physically move themselves for discussion. Good luck
