How to use

This resource can be used as supplemental teacher material or as a primary basis for literature study to:

  • Ensure deeper understanding and enjoyment of the literature with activities for all learning types.
  • Stretch students’ critical thinking and writing skills with differentiated essay topics.

Note to Teachers: To support lesson-planning, connections to the work’s primary themes are noted throughout this resource (family unity, success and survival, struggles during the Great Depression, racism and discrimination, secrets, kindness, and hopes and dreams).
