Description
Have your students demonstrate their understanding of Number the Stars by Lois Lowry by creatively blending written analysis with visual elements drawn from the text using this one-pager reading comprehension project. Students use details from the novel to transform key ideas into meaningful illustrations and written responses.
This novel one-pager activity encourages close reading and critical thinking as students analyze important literary elements such as theme, symbolism, setting, and imagery. The project works especially well as an end-of-novel assessment or creative summary that allows students to synthesize their thoughts and interpretations of the story.
Completed projects result in unique and thoughtful analyses of the novel and also make eye-catching bulletin boards and classroom displays that showcase student learning.
This resource includes
Student directions, a rubric for assessment, an example project, ten blank printable templates (optional), and an editable Word document so teachers can modify the assignment as needed.
