Description

This digital literary analysis activity allows for scaffolding and encourages student understanding of literature. Because this literature activity comes with multiple pieces, you can decide what works for each student. This scaffolded literary analysis activity is the perfect starting point for a literary analysis essay or alternative to the literary analysis essay.

You can see the pieces and presentation in the thumbnails and preview. You will receive a Google Slide with directions, analytical questions, and a link to a Google folder with over 50 .JPGs to build your literary analysis for students to add digital elements. I have also included a page of teaching ideas.

Specifically, this digital literary analysis activity includes:

♦ 50+ .JPGs that include labels to start students with their literary analysis.

♦ A Google Presentation where students can build their analysis.

♦ A teacher page of suggestions.

♦ 10 literary analysis questions.

♦ A rubric.

Everything except the .JPGs are editable in this digital literary analysis activity. The pieces (for which you will receive a Google Drive folder) for students to build include:
