High School: The Scholar's Quest Mad Lib Mini-Unit

In my house, finding ninth-grade resources that do not feel childish is an uphill battle. If a worksheet looks like it is from 1994, my daughter is done before she even picks up a pencil. That is why I created the High School The Scholar's Quest Mad Lib Mini Unit. I wanted something that leaned into that dark academia, immersive vibe that teens actually like, while still hitting the academic rigor they need. We have used this on those slow, rainy Tuesdays to turn a boring ELA lesson into a deep dive into atmosphere—without the usual groaning.
