This reading comprehension guide for “The Open Window” by Saki provides structured support for students before, during, and after reading, making it an excellent choice for teaching irony, tone, and surprise endings.

Before reading, students complete an anticipation guide to activate prior knowledge and set expectations about truth, deception, and first impressions. During reading, students answer comprehension and recall questions that help them track plot details, characters, and key moments in the story. After reading, students respond to literary analysis, text-dependent questions that require close reading and the use of textual evidence to examine irony, characterization, and author’s purpose.

An answer key is included for easy grading and review, along with an editable Word document so teachers can adapt the lesson to meet their classroom needs. The full text of the short story is also provided, making this a complete, ready-to-use lesson for any short story or British literature unit.
