Following Directions Reading Comprehension Strategies Packet
Many students with special needs can understand what they are reading, but have difficulty communicating with those around them. I created these activities for a young man who is non-verbal, but who can read and understand the directions words give him. When I first gave him comprehension questions, he could not select a correct answer. When I started giving him written commands, he could complete the task he was asked to do. This indicated that his understanding of words was far more than he co

Elie Wiesel Nobel Prize Speech ~ Night Pre-reading activity
Night is the heart wrenching first hand account of Elie Wiesel's internment in the Auschwitz Camp during the Holocaust.

For example, to explain that survival guilt is an indication of a good person, Sherman calls upon three philosophers. Honors classes easily discuss this in relation to ethos and building credibility for the argument, a standard English course would look at this as a call to experts. Along with this, stud
