Thank you for sharing this very detailed resource. I won't be able to use all of it in one unit but there is plenty of variety so I can bits and pieces. Well worth the money.

Some of its a little high for my class, but I have been able to pull a lot out and use it! What I can use is great and what I can't is not the fault of the writer it the age I teach.

Well organized and easy to follow. I wish some the activities were a little more interactive for students to relate to (use of technology such as youtube links for example). Otherwise it was great, I used the writing/essay ideas as culminating tasks and that worked out well.

I will definitely be using this as I teach this novel in the coming month. Thank you!

Wow! By far the best thing I have purchased on TPT. This takes all the guessing out of teaching the Giver! I can't thank you enough :)

This resource was awesome! The quality is excellent. Saved me multiple hours of creating my own assignments!
Would love to see some non-fiction lessons from you...any plans to create some common-core non-fiction units?
Thanks and keep up the great work!

We have alot to choose from for the GIver but this one really helps all of us doing the book.

Shelley Sinner (TpT Seller)
Using this right now with my high school special education English classes. It is very thorough. If I could improve it any, it would be to add more creativeness like adding a creative project option.

Secondary Solutions has some of the best novel study units I've seen! As a middle school teacher, this is the first place I go to purchase a new unit.

I would recommend this to any middle school teacher looking to do an in-depth novel study based around common core. So glad I bought it!!

This an intense unit but very thorough. Nine weeks is too long to spend and I only see my students four days a week. I love the vocabulary quizzes and decided to make Quiz-Quiz-Trade Cards to teach vocabulary. I also like the idea of a final project but am using a differentiated instruction menu for that. Great resource! Thanks.

Hello, I was wondering if the purchased guide for The Giver comes in Microsoft Word format for editing or if it only comes in PDF format. Thanks!

Secondary Solutions (TpT Seller)
Hi there! The Giver Literature Guide is a copyright protected product, and therefore, it is only available in PDF format that disallows editing/changes.

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
Subject Area:
Secondary Solutions is the endeavor of a high school English teacher who could never seem to find appropriate materials to help her students master the necessary concepts at the secondary level. She grew tired of spending countless hours researching, creating, writing, and revising lesson plans, worksheets, quizzes, tests and extension activities to motivate and inspire her students, and at the same time, address those ominous content standards! Before the inception of Secondary Solutions, materials that were available were either juvenile in nature, skimpy in content, or were moderately engaging activities that did not come close to meeting the content standards on which her students were being tested. Frustrated and tired of trying to get by with inappropriate, inane lessons, she finally decided that if the right materials were going to be available to her and other teachers, she was going to have to make them herself! Mrs. Bowers set to work to create one of the most comprehensive and innovative Literature Guide sets on the market. Joined by a middle school teacher with 21 years of secondary school experience, Secondary Solutions began, and has matured into a specialized team of intermediate and secondary teachers who have developed for you a set of materials unsurpassed by all others. Mrs. Bowers, Founder and President of Secondary Solutions, is now currently running Secondary Solutions from home while she raises her precocious four year old daughter!
