Modified Test on Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave
This is a modified version of my other test on Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave. Some of the essay question are in Spanish. I wanted to know whether my students gained the content knowldege of the complex issue of slavery. This was given in a high school Sheltered English 11 class (American Literature.)

Novel Project
This is the generic version of a novel project I do with my students. The Frankenstein To Kill A Mockingbird Projects that I have posted are the same, but everything is particular to those novels. This one I made very generic so that it can go with almost any novel. My students like being given a choice as to what they do.

Reading Response Log
My students use this worksheet to write about their independent reading. I found that if I just let them write on their own, they would just recite the book over again. This helps them focus on their connections and analysis of the story, not just retelling plot (though they have to do that too!) I think it is adaptable to many levels.

Current Event Report
My students have to do a current event report every week. They choose a news article and write a summary and their personal response to it. This particular class is World Literature, so they have to report on news from other countries, but this is easily modified for whatever type of news you want them to read.
