Description
Have your students demonstrate their understanding of The Outsiders by S. E. Hinton by creatively blending written analysis with visual elements using this one-pager reading comprehension project. Students draw directly from the text as they 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, characterization, and conflict. The one-pager format allows students to synthesize information in a creative way while still demonstrating strong comprehension and analysis skills.
Completed projects serve as unique and engaging interpretations of the novel and also make eye-catching bulletin boards and classroom displays that showcase student learning.
This resource includes
Student directions for the one-pager project provided as a ready-to-print PDF, a rubric for the project in PDF format, an example one pager, ten blank printable templates (optional), and an editable Word document so teachers can modify the student directions or rubric as needed.
