Digital and Printable Create Your Own Novel Unit for Middle School
This unit has been created for my students in order to help them better navigate their own independent reading. The goal is that they are to create a unit that matches the learning they are doing while reading their own personal novel.
Because I choose a mentor text and have students reading their own independent reading books, this is the ideal tool for them to work to:
- identify/analyze characters
- use context clues to determine the meaning of unknown words
- determine BIG ideas from each chapter
- develop literal and inferential questions about the text
- identify plot elements, identify different types of conflict
- write thoughtfully about their text demonstrating synthesis
- RUBRIC Included for student evaluation
- Google Slides Mini-Lessons to enhance student understanding
I have created it to be used as both a digital and/or printable unit. Keep in mind, students can students can duplicate and delete slides as needed.
If you are looking for a resource that students can use in the classroom or through distance learning, this is the ideal tool.
