Graphic Organizer will help students think and write about how peer pressure plays an important role in the lives or characters. The graphic organizer can be used for any book (and is not book specific). They will identify and analyze how one negative influence of peer pressure led the character to detrimental consequences and how one positive influence of peer pressure proved to be an asset in the character’s life.

Great scaffolding tool to help students gather and organize information.

This is an analysis of my FAVORITE quote from Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury, which appears on page 79 of my version of the text (the one with the red cover and book of matches). There are 4 questions that can be used as a Do Now/Bellringer, Exit Ticket, partner activity, or even as a homework assignment. Answers are included!

It’s not books you need, it’s some of the things that once were in books. The same things could be in the ‘parlor families’ today. The same infinite detail and awareness could be projected through the radios and televisors, but are not. No, no, it’s not books at all you’re looking for! Take it where you can find it, in old phonograph records, old motion pictures, and in old friends; look for it in nature and look for it in yourself. Books were only one type of receptacle where we stored a lot of things we were afraid we might forget. There is nothing magical in them, at all. The magic is only in what books say, how they stitched the patches of the universe together into one garment for us” (Bradbury 79).

Please check out my shop for other great Fahrenheit 451 resources!

This puzzle page about Philippians 4:6 gets students thinking about the meaning of the verse. Students will use Greek words and rewrite the prayer in Greek. They'll be thinking about the meaning, connecting languages, and analyzing various words. They'll also (hopefully) remember that Paul wrote in Greek!

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.

I used this resource with one of my guided reading groups. After they completed a book they choose from the list of extra activities.

Thanks for looking! Please rate and leave a comment.

As students read their independent reading/ reading workshop book over the course of the week, they will select 5 words or phrases that the author used that stood out to them, or had a particularly strong impact. They will put the 5 words, definitions, and an analysis of how the author used them onto one piece of blank paper. The end result will be one page of visually appealing information. I used this for independent reading, but you could use it for a specific novel or even literature circles. The file contains directions for you to copy or post, Success Criteria, and a scoring rubric.

This digital assignment is PERFECT for use during Distance Learning. Students can view the requirements and the rubric in this PDF, then create and submit their final product through Google Classroom or whatever way you use for your students!

This resource should be used with Edgar Allan Poe's short story The Tell-Tale Heart. With this activity, students will read the M'Naghten rule of 1843 and decide whether or not they believe the main character of The Tell-Tale Heart would be found legally sane or insane. This resource includes space for students to collect textual evidence to support their answer, space for students to write other open-ended questions for discussion, and a discussion grading rubric.

I used this activity with my 8th grade students, and they absolutely loved it. They found great evidence to back up their explanations, and gained a deeper understanding of the short story and the M'Naghten rule. We used this resource in a socratic seminar formatted discussion, and they had enough to say about the main character and the M'Naghten rule that the majority of our 55 minute class period was covered.

This product includes:

- Crossword Puzzle

- Faction knowledge worksheets for all 5 factions
