Feedback from other teachers about these literary analysis prompts:
Excellent resource that saved me a lot of time. The questions were thought-provoking and my students' responses reflected that.
Showing versus telling. My students struggle to grasp this concept. This particular activity was used after I have spent some time working on analysis of authorial choices and I am very satisfied with it. Thank you for another way to try and explain to my students how best they can look to texts and analyze.
This was such a helpful resource for my freshman!
