Cindy Downes (TpT Seller)
This would have been more valuable if there were answers to the questions, quizzes, etc. I do not have the Literature book and Reader's handbook referenced in the material (She did not provide the titles either.). Also, there was a lot of repetition. It does provide some good information, but I was disappointed overall.

It's a strategy for answering a written response question. R- restate the question, A-answer the question, P-prove your answer with textual evidence and an explanation.

Lee Paull (TpT Seller) re: LOL: Humorous Fiction Unit
Hi Amy
I am a 4th yr education student and as an assessment for uni I am currently working with a Gifted and Talented Yr6 student who is wanting to learn more about the genre of Humor (and would ideally like to write some humorous short stories). I have tried to download a preview of this unit but it is not working (??). Before I purchase it I just wanted to clarify if you might think this is suitable or if you can recommend any of your other products/lessons/assessments?
Many thanks

I have uploaded the preview again. Hopefully you can downloaded it now. The actual file is about 30 pages, and includes worksheets on different humorous techniques (irony, puns, allusions, hyperbole, dialect) and includes worksheets for humorous fiction stories. There's also a worksheet to help students write a tall tale about themselves or a character they make up. Hope this helps you.

I am getting ready to use your unit on The Watsons Go To Birmingham. In Chapter 1, the directions say "Answer each question in complete sentences using R.A.P. " - can you tell me what R.A.P. stands for?

What is the format for the chapter quizzes--Multiple choice, short answer? Are there quizzes for each chapter or are chapters grouped together into 1 quiz, i.e. chapters 1-3?

The quizzes are multiple choice and shot answer. The quizzes are chapter are group in sections (ch. 1-4,...) and a final test.

Hi,
I just purchased your wonderful "The Watsons go to Birmingham - 1963" novel unit. So far, I love it! I have one question regarding the instructions to students to write their answers "in complete sentences using R.A.P." What is R.A.P.? Thanks, Jessica Thumser

September 26, 2010
Amy Moss (TpT Seller)
R.A.P. is a technique I use for the students to answer constructed response questions:
R - Restate the question
A - Answer the question
P - Prove your answer with details from the story and an explanation.
Hope this helps!

Is there a mistake on the vocabulary section? Chap. 1-7 is shown twice and there is no vocabulary for Chapter 10-Epilogue.

I actually have an updated file. What's your email address? I'll email it to you.

kapathy re: The Watsons Go to Birmingham 1963 - 70+ Page Novel Unit
I think the Watsons Go to Birmingham unit is good, but it seems as though you are missing chapters 4-on. I would have liked to have some more guidance with each chapter as there are for chapters 1-3
