Buying novel guides from publishers can be pretty hit and miss. Most of the activites are either too juvenile or need extensive modification. This book, however, is quite useful. The lessons are easily adaptable to multiple levels and cover important skills students should be developing. There are no real worksheets, but lots of information that can be turned into close reading activities, research projects, and group projects. I had to put together a quick unit on Lord of the Flies for a summer class, and this manual really simplified things for me.
We home school and I have used many of the Discovering Literature Series Teaching Guides. Across the board, they do a great job of discussing literary devices and structure: plot, theme, characterization, conflict, etc.There is not a bunch of extra fluff to wade through to find the substance.The suggested Strategies (assignments) are useful, quick and painless for the students.I highly recommend this series, including specifically Lord of the Flies.
Good basic guide for the novel. I have bought others that left me thinking, "I could have done that myself in 5 minutes." This is actually very complete and helpful. The summaries are clear, the questions are both explicit and implicit, and I am able to modify it so it is useful for a variety of students.
Did not help me relate the book to group processes.I was in need of some insights about group formation and groups in general
