How to use this Theme and Conflict Lesson for “Eleven” by Sandra Cisneros:
Sandra Cisneros’ “Eleven” is a coming-of-age story about a young student named Rachel. On her 11th birthday, Rachel faces a conflict with her grade school teacher, Mrs. Price, uncovering themes of authority, identity, and obedience. Explore the child-like perspective of this classic short story with this lesson plan!
You can begin this lesson by differentiating between types of conflict using the Types of Conflict worksheet. This worksheet defines four types of literary conflict and prompts students to find relevant examples from popular culture for each type:
- Person vs. Person
- Person vs. Self
- Person vs. Society
- Person vs. Nature
Students can then use the Identifying Conflict in Movie Trailers Activity to apply their knowledge about types of conflict. You can select a movie trailer for the entire class to watch, or allow them to select a movie trailer of their preference. For consolidation, an answer key for Netflix’s The Half of It has been included.
Once students have demonstrated their understanding of the different types of literary conflict, they can apply this knowledge to Sandra Cisneros’ short story, “Eleven.” You can use the Conflict and Theme Worksheet for Sandra Cisneros’ “Eleven” to define the term theme and scaffold the process of uncovering themes using literary conflict. This worksheet includes short-answer questions, along with a long-answer question to have students analyze theme in paragraph form.
Students are asked to use evidence from the text to support their long-answer responses. To teach students how to properly cite textual evidence, you can use Mondays Made Easy’s In-Text Citation Worksheets and Activities.
To consolidate this activity, an answer key has been provided. While answers may vary, this answer key includes example answers that can be used to model proper responses for your students.
