Flowers for Algernon Guided Reading Google Annotation Project
- Google Slides™
What educators are saying
Description
"My students were just breezing by the text just so they could be done. They didn't stop to read closely, make predictions, and notice the literary devices that lent to the tone and theme of the work. Mrs. Anderson's guided reading Google Slides force my students to slow down and really absorb everything. She breaks the text up into digestible chunks that students can tackle while sprinkling in literary analysis and thematic questions in a way that does not intimidate students. What's great is that I can put this on Google Classroom, make a copy for each of my students, and then let them work at their own pace, helping students who need it. I love these guided reading annotation projects so much!" - Macy Thomas from Altus, Oklahoma
Wanting to ease your students into annotating text with a short story? Looking to help your students make inferences and deeply analyze the text while summarizing, making predictions, and identifying key literary elements? Looking for some technology integration that will free you up to remediate and differentiate? Check out my completely editable guided reading of Daniel Keyes' short story "Flowers for Algernon" through Google Slides! Students will highlight textual evidence, literary devices, and plot elements as they read this iconic short story. As they read, students will interact with the text by answering questions focused on higher-order thinking that help them infer about the characters in the story.
