My students really enjoyed answering these questions. They were very thought provoking for them and allowed them to connect to the text before reading it.

I taught Speak a couple of months ago--wish I would have thought to look here first. I'll be sure to use it next year!

So glad someone out there had something on "Perks" I won't be using it for about 2 weeks, but it looks great.

What a waste of a dollar! Just a few words presented in a boring way.

I love this beautiful PowerPoint, which goes to the heart of the novel's most resonant symbol. Thank you for creating such a powerful set to spark my students' interest about this book.

I absolutely love this Power Point. (I may change the picture on the last slide because I'm not sure what kind of commotion it will cause in class.)What great insight into the symbolism of the tree in this novel!!
