It’s FREE!“This close reading exercise helps students read more actively and analyze the text more deeply to promote improved comprehension of The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien (Chapter 1). I recommend using this worksheet as the basis for small-group discussions, letting students discuss, debate, and support their reasoning for answer choices.” |

“This bundle of 15 close reading exercises, which features more than 125 higher order thinking questions, encourages purposeful reading, application of literary terminology, interpretation of idiomatic expressions, vocabulary development, inferential thinking, deeper comprehension, and more. I recommend using these worksheets as the basis for small-group discussions, letting students discuss, debate, and support their reasoning for answer choices; in the role of facilitator, I observe my students becoming more consistently engaged with the novel and taking greater ownership of their learning.” |
