HITCH by Jeanette Ingold, Socratic Seminar Questions
Social Studies, ELA, History, History: USA, Reading, Grade 8, Worksheets & Printables, Novel Studies
HITCH by Jeanette Ingold is a story which describes what life was like working in the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) during the Great Depression of the 1930’s. Set mostly in Montana, the story is told through the eyes of Moss Trawnley, a young man from Texas and Louisiana who goes to Montana in search of his father, a man who had abandoned his family and lost his way in life. Although Moss found his father, he decided not to follow in his dissolute dad’s footsteps. When an opportunity to enroll in the CCC was presented to Moss, he signed up. During his “hitch” (a six-month enrollment in the CCC), Moss learned the value of hard work, and the importance of taking responsibility for his own future. This PDF of Socratic Seminar Questions contains both a student question section as well as a thorough answer key section for HITCH. There are 48 carefully crafted questions which first summarize the key events in a chapter and then challenge students to find details, offer opinions, make predictions, compare or contrast events, draw conclusions, or brainstorm possible answers. The last question, Question 48, requires a more detailed and lengthy response from the students, asking them to include ideas found throughout the entire book. All of the questions can be used to facilitate in-class Socratic Seminar discussions about the novel. They can also be used for other purposes, such as homework assignments or classroom quizzes. The answers the students give will help teachers gauge whether or not students have read and understand the important ideas presented in the novel. It is my hope that these Socratic Seminar Questions will be helpful to teachers who present HITCH to their students. I believe that as the students read the story they will find that the companion questions will help them develop critical thinking skills in English and Language Arts. Common Core Standards for Reading and Writing for grades seven through nine are included at the end of this PDF. If you find that these questions are helpful to your students, please contact me with the names of other novels that you use in class and I will see if I can write questions for those books. My email address is: gary.ciesla@gmail.com . Thank you. You can find similar resources in my store!

Narrative Nonfiction Genre Study Book Report Project for Middle School
ELA, Reading, Reading Comprehension, Literature, Writing, Grade 6, 7, 8, Novel Studies, Worksheets & Printables
Ignite your students interest in narrative nonfiction, a genre many of them might not appreciate. The 47-page comprehensive standards-aligned genre study: Narrative Nonfiction Genre Study Book Report Project for Middle School provides you with everything you need to teach an engaging unit on creative nonfiction, including Objectives and Learning Targets. Well-written narrative nonfiction or creative nonfiction is not only just as enjoyable as fiction, but many students discover that they enjoy narrative nonfiction more than fiction. For students for whom reading is not a go-to activity, reading creative nonfiction might just be the answer for them. Fortunately, there are many excellent narrative nonfiction books available for our students at all grade levels. They run the gamut of science, history, adventure, crime, travel, space, the ocean, rainforests, climate change. Many fiction readers groan when I first introduce this project, but once they find the book that pulls them in, they develop a whole new appreciation for this genre. This 4-5 week unit (including reading a narrative nonfiction book)offers a number of opportunities for students to work alone, in partners, and in small groups as they learn how to complete the writing tasks for this project. The project includes 3 required writing tasks: a book review, a text-to-world connection, and a newspaper article. They then can choose 4 of the remaining 7 tasks to complete. (You can easily modify this to meet your students’ needs and depending on the time you would like to spend on this project.) I have provided 5 lesson plans for this project, 14 handouts, including graphic organizers, a self-evaluation, grading guidelines, and 5 rubrics. The genre study can be easily adapted to upper elementary and high school. This resource downloads as a pdf but includes a google doc force copy link on the Table of Contents page.
