Sample Science Fiction Story w/ Analysis Activities – Secondary ELA
ELA, Reading, Reading Comprehension, Literature, Writing, Grade 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, Activities, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets
This no-prep short science fiction story with analysis activities is perfect for a 1-2 day sub plan or as an introduction to a larger unit on story-genre or creative writing. Richard Post’s “The Hallway” will appropriately introduce the elements of science fiction stories to your students, and the included analysis questions and response essay assignment are designed to build strong analysis and writing skills. Planning a week-long unit around this resource could not be easier! Start by handing out the story and analysis questions to your students and let them read the story and answer the questions (or read the story aloud and answer the questions as a discussion - your choice!). Once you feel your students are ready for their understanding of the story to be assessed, hand out the literary analysis essay assignment. The essay's prompt is based upon response questions and the worksheet also includes literary analysis writing tips, a peer review checklist, and Common Core-aligned rubric for straightforward grading. Your download includes the following: - The short science fiction narrative "The Hallway," by Richard Post (written exclusively for The Language of Educational Art) - 8 accompanying response questions (w/ answer key) designed to further your students' understanding of the structure and thematic concepts found in science fiction stories - A self-checking Easel activity version of the analysis questions - A literary analysis essay assignment that builds on students' understanding of "The Hallway" and how science fiction narratives are structured (40 points - tied to 4 Common Core Standards) SYNOPSIS OF ‘THE HALLWAY': It's 2141, and Dr. Abraham Lazarouch has spent the past eighty years inventing the technology to cure death. Facing his "original-life" mortality, Dr. Lazarouch reflects on his long career while being prepared for life as a BioDroid. But what awaits the doctor on the far end of the Hallway? ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Richard Post came late to writing YA literature, but he has been a storyteller and raconteur his entire life. When he’s not writing short stories for The Language of Educational Art, he enjoys fishing for rock bass on Higgins Lake, hunting pheasants on the farms of mid-Michigan, bottling sun pickles (here's his famous recipe ), hosting “whoopie” parties for his grandchildren, and playing cribbage. He lives with his wife Beverly in St. Louis, Michigan and Orange Beach, Alabama. Although this resource can be fitted for any secondary Language Arts classroom, it has been carefully designed to work best in grades 9 through 12. The included activities and rubric are subtly but specifically tied to Common Core ELA Standards for Language (1 and 2), Reading Literature (2), and Writing (2). This resource is provided as a print-ready, bookmarked, and adjustable PDF file. This resource contains 13 pages.

Three of the questions will be MCQs and two will require a written response of some kind. Full answers and example responses appear at the end of the lesson. Spelling & Vocab Each reading passage contains a variety of words and phrases designed for Grade 2-3 students. Spelling and vocab activities provide the opportunity to build fluency with these words. As it can become quite mundane doing the same activities over and over, each lesson in a set will contain a different spelling and vocab activity . Writing Prompts Writing prompts are designed to continue the theme or lessons learned in the story. Students are persuaded to write in a variety of ways and each prompt includes several cues to help. As with the spelling/vocab section, writing prompts will vary. This includes research pieces, reading responses, poetry and creative writing prompts. Full Answer Keys Full answer keys and sample responses are provided so no matter how busy you are, you know you're covered! Mixed question answers provide evidence from the text, math questions contain the relevant workings. Answers are designed for use by the teacher, but also suitable as a handout to the student.
