Product description
From the author
This Grades 9–12 literature companion supports To Kill a Mockingbird through vocabulary, before-and-after reading questions and evidence-based character analysis. Supply the novel separately.
The 60-page PDF includes teacher guidance, a rubric, six writing tasks, a word search, an 18-question written-response quiz and answers. Three organizers track Scout’s development, map a subplot and structure an argument about Atticus using point, illustration and explanation.
Writing options include narrative perspective, a character hot seat, an alternative-scene comic and a book review. Select work to match the class reading schedule.

Teaching tips
Use the assessment rubric (teacher guide) to evaluate the writing tasks and graphic organizers with a consistent 4-level scale, since the kit is built around that rubric rather than simple right/wrong marking.
Assign the chapter-grouping Before/After sections alongside the reading schedule rather than all at once, since the kit is structured as 10 sequential chapter groupings.
Use the Hot Seat task as students approach the trial: small groups speak in character and record viewpoints about the upcoming trial.
