Three Activities Based on "Harrison Bergeron"
I first used this project with gifted eighth graders. They loved it. Not only did they enjoy the discussion but they loved doing art work in English class. Recently I did these activities in my heterogeneous ninth grade classes. They, too, enjoyed it. They loved sharing what talent or skill they have and they loved drawing what handicaps the Handicap General would give them if they lived in Harrison's world. Our pictures are posted around the room and students from other classes who have heard a

Word Wall Unit: "The Story of An Hour"-by Kate Chopin
Word Walls are an important part of the Common Core classroom. Students see patterns and relationships in words when they are easily accessible in the classroom. When vocabulary is studied in context it becomes relevant to the learner. When prominently displayed in the classroom, the words on the word wall are discussed, referenced, and used in a variety of assessments. Subject specific terminology provides visual clues, connections, and comprehension for students.

Grave Mistake
There's alot of talk about respect for those who are alive. As should be, there should be talk about respecting those who are now dead. This story is similar to an old Irish folk tale about mocking the dead why one shouldn't do that.

Graphic organizer: Main idea and supporting details
This graphic organizer can be used for a variety of short stories. I used it for a short story which can be found on the internet, "Salt in His Shoes" for a unit on goal setting. There is also a T chart for identifying Michael Jordan's strengths and weaknesses as they are outlined in the short story written by his mother about his childhood. It is a cute short story that helps set the tone for goal setting. You can use these charts for other stories, though, and I hope they will be useful for yo

Poe Background Activity
Fill Poe's head with details about his life! A much safer alternative to getting inside the creepy writer's head itself. Students should use available technology or resources to find facts about Poe. This resource makes a great way to start a Short Story Unit on Poe and is a cool thing to display around the room or to make a quick bulletin board with.
This does not include any background research as I encourage students to find their facts on their own.
