High School Literary Elements Doodle Notes - Any Novel Study
ELA, Reading, Writing, Resources for Teachers, High School, Homeschool Resources, Teacher Tools, Worksheets & Printables, Writing Prompts
Let me paint you a picture of what literature time used to look like in our house. Picture this: me, armed with my coffee (okay, let's be honest - my third cup), trying to explain symbolism while my daughter slouches in her chair like she's physically allergic to the concept of deeper meaning. Meanwhile, I am internally questioning every life choice that led me to think I could actually teach high school English from my kitchen table. Sound familiar? I thought it might. INCLUDED IN THIS RESOURCE: Comprehensive pages that cover all the big literary elements - Characters, Plot, Setting, Theme, and Conflict 7 different conflict type slides that break down everything from the classic "good guy vs. bad guy" to those tricky "character vs. society" scenarios that used to stump us both Gorgeous visual layouts with fun doodle borders that make her want to fill them out (miracle of miracles!) NO-PREP time for this already-maxed-out mama - just print and go! TOPICS COVERED: How to really analyze characters beyond just "she is nice" or "he is mean" Breaking down plot structure so she can spot the rising action and climax like a pro Understanding how setting affects the whole story (time, place, mood - the works!) Finding those deeper themes that English teachers love to ask about on tests So when I tell you that I found these incredible visual doodle notes that actually got my teenager excited about analyzing books, I totally get if you are sitting there thinking "Yeah right, lady." Trust me, I was the queen of skepticism too. I mean, we're talking about the same kid who once asked me if she could write her book report as a text message thread. But y'all, these Literary Elements Doodle Notes - Any Novel Study worked some kind of magic I still do not fully understand. Listen, fellow homeschool warriors, I know you have got your plate full trying to make sure your kids get a solid education. Between lesson planning, household management, and wondering if we are screwing up our kids' futures, who has time for elaborate literature prep? If you and your students/homeschoolers enjoyed this resource, please leave a review. Thank you for your support! Happy teaching, Tina - Big Easy Homeschooling Mom
