Character Introductions PowerPoint. This visual aid introduces students to the key characters in The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien, offering them context on character traits, relationships, conflicts, and development over the course of the novel.
Comprehensive Guided Reading Handout: Key quotations and text-dependent questions are featured to foster purposeful reading experiences.
Vocabulary Games and Activities: Frontload assigned readings with vocabulary games and activities to facilitate comprehension of the novel. Alternatively, stash these materials in an emergency sub folder to keep students meaningfully engaged in the book during unexpected teacher absences. By engaging with these materials, students will:
Determine the meaning of unfamiliar and complex words
Consult reference materials in order to learn and verify word meanings
Discern the most proper application of words as they are used in sentences
Plot-Based Quizzes: Evaluate general reading comprehension and hold students accountable for completing assigned readings. Alternatively, the quizzes may serve as guided reading handouts to facilitate purposeful engagement with literature. By engaging with these materials, students will:
Demonstrate generalized knowledge of characters
Demonstrate generalized knowledge of settings
Demonstrate generalized knowledge of conflicts
Close Reading Analysis Worksheets: Go beyond general reading comprehension and support the development of close reading analysis skills with this set of rigorous activities (one for each chapter). By engaging with these materials, students will:
Identify what the text states explicitly and implicitly
Discern the intended effects of the author's diction and narrative techniques
Describe the tone of a given passage
Explore how complex characters think, behave, interact, and develop
Apply knowledge of literary devices with emphasis on alliteration, callback, metaphor, hyperbole, simile, symbolism, foreshadowing, onomatopoeia, symbolism, situational irony, dramatic irony, and more
Support claims and inferences with sound reasoning and relevant evidence
Write about literature with clarity, accuracy, and precision
Come to class better prepared to discuss works of fiction
Summative Test: In addition to applying knowledge of characters, settings, and conflicts, students will draft a thematic essay on what the author suggests are the hallmarks of a fulfilling life.
Creative Project Options with Rubrics: These resources may serve as alternatives to the traditional paper-and-pencil test, or as a supplement to the unit.
Resources are available for a variety of other engaging novels:
