This website has lots of good essay questions that you could use as quick writes or major essays. I'm going to give my kids a list of about 5 questions and let them choose which one they want to write about.
There are also some quiz questions and summaries on the main page.

The Crucible -web activity
I used this website for background info before starting the book. It has a lesson plan that goes along with it (Learning Activity II).

Huck Finn
This isn't a culminating activity...but a fun way to review story facts. It is an online "Who Wants to be a Millionaire" game (pre-made!)

Culminating Activity for Huck Finn?
Is anyone doing Huck Finn first? Found a good culminating activity? We're going to be done with the book in a little over a week. I don't know that my kids can complete the activity that's in the Macomb unit. Wondering if anyone has anything else they've found.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Cool lessons for the novel
http://www.kimskorner4teachertalk.com/readingliterature/novels/of_mice_and_men/of_mice_and_men.htm
I found this by accident. It has quite a few ideas. Of course -kimskorner is one of my favorite sites.

Raisin in the Sun
Looking ahead (way ahead!)...when you get into the material that was given to us for teaching Raisin - it suggests using "The 7 Habbits of Highly Effective Teens". Rather than use the notebook ideas (since I don't have enough students for them to each or groups to teach a Habit!)I found a site that I will use instead. It has lots of activities that I think will be more meaningful to my students...
