Night by Elie Wiesel: Bundle of Activities
- Zip
Description
NIGHT BUNDLE: This zip file includes activities that are designed around higher order thinking. The pre-reading activities are designed to get students thinking about stereotyping, prejudice and racism. You will conduct several whole class discussions and students will do some reading, research and reflection. There is an option for a small group presentation. Rubrics are provided for both the response and presentation option. You can click HERE for more detail.
Students will also read an original short story that focuses on the necessity of bravery in the face of prejudice. Questions and answer keys are provided.
The next unit is not based around chapter questions, or activities that are mostly teacher-directed. Instead, they are designed to put the responsibility for learning on the students as they work together to discover the important elements and lessons in the text. Click HERE for more detail.
The post reading activities ask students to investigate whether or not the world has really learned from Wiesel's message. Click HERE for more detail.
Finally, as an added bonus, this file includes a binder cover, spine and organizer sheets.

♥ I looked at DOZENS of resources or Night last year, and this was the best one I found BY FAR! I love that this resource includes so many different activities. Last year I used this during a unit on Research; after admiring the characterization and figurative language worksheets so much, I decided to start my year with this unit instead. If you are looking for a way to engage your students while also giving them most of the responsibility, this resource is perfect for you!
