Description

Save time with this no-prep, printable webquest featuring worksheets to engage your high school ELA students in exploring the remarkable life and works of JOHN MILTON, author of PARADISE LOST and PARADISE REGAINED.

This 9-page printable webquest includes 50 questions to help students discover more about JOHN MILTON. Depending on your class time and your individual students, you might . . .

  • assign students to find all the answers or
  • divide the questions and let students teach each other as they discover the answers.

You might also . . .

  • direct students to the Milton quotations at the end of the resource and ask them to use critical thinking to determine how they would fill in the missing words; then compare and contrast what they composed to what Milton wrote.
  • ask students to choose one of the Milton quotations and then explain orally or in written form why they agree or disagree with it.

If you need an activity for early finishers or for extra credit, ask students to create a timeline, either one that features . . .

  • all important parts of Miltons life or
  • ten (or another number) events in Miltons life they think are most important.

In the included answer key, you’ll find additional information for answers to many questions. If you choose, use this additional information to form questions for extra credit.
