Which Symbol Was The Most Revealing About Either Character, Theme, Or Plot In The Story? Students begin their study by responding to examples of common symbols and move from there to an analysis of the most revealing symbols in A Raisin in the Sun by Lorraine Hansberry. Working with a discussion partner, they will next rank the story's symbols and justify their reasoning using the Rank & Reason tool. A differentiated writing prompt follows the discussions and students are challenged to explain, citing evidence from the text, the most revealing symbol of the story. Finally, students will rate their confidence with symbol analysis in a reflection. (For more information on researched-based student confidence ratings and the connection to achievement, go to grokspot.org ) Included in this activity are discussion questions, a Rank & Reason activity, three writing prompts, student reflection, and a rubric.

With little time to plan and a play I've never taught before, this was an excellent resource to use for working through the play in a co-taught class and a limited time for teaching the play. It pushed their analysis skills, but was still doable for my students with IEPs." AVAILABLE AS A PDF AND I HAVE ADDED A DIGITAL LAYER USING THE TPT EASEL ACTIVITIES TOOL.

The widely anticipated Broadway revival of A Raisin in the Sun opens on April 3 at the Barrymore Theatre with a cast led by …
If your kids are like mine, they can't stand it when you put sunscreen on them. I was so excited to find this activity from Sid the Science Kid to
A Raisin in the Sun is a classic American play about one family's struggles to achieve their dreams despite racial discrimination.
This play, A Raisin in the Sun, is easy to teach because of the relatable themes of struggle: financial, familial, and personal. #TheStruggle Students really get into this unit, and especially love these two activities: -Real World Money Activity with coordinating worksheet guide for students to budget for monthly expenses based on an anticipated career. You may need to alter some figures based on the area you live in, but all numbers were reached by research and my best knowledge. This is a STUDENT FAVORITE that will stick!! -Listening to and analyzing lyrics to a popular, positive, rap song encouraging young people to keep a good head on their shoulders. I usually have students highlight the lines that encourage or promote education while having them listen to the music video from youtube. Generally, I play it a few times... Because the kids love it so much... actually... because I love it so much. This unit of 55 pages also comes with: -American Dream/ Background Info PPT -2 Schemas or Do Nows -2 Poems (1 with links to videos/audio) Analyze the words on the SMART BOARD while having students jot down notes/answer questions in their packets. -3 Activity Assignments (Journal, Floor Plan, and Jazz Lyric Analysis) -Jazz Lyrics Analysis Worksheet -1 example of the Floor Plan -Comprehension Question Packet with Vocabulary Matching -(Bonus) Character Map - Freebie - Skills focused on are making connections/making learning relevant, using citations from the text to draw conclusions, and writing. Let this unit be your best yet!! Will need the capability to open SMART NOTEBOOK files, PDF files, PPT files, and a PNG (image) file.
This “Character’s Phone” creative characterization activity for A Raisin in the Sun is a fabulous, and relevant way to assess your high school ELA students' understanding of characterization! Kids love their phones! This activity has them imagine a character’s phone’s apps, their favorite entertainment, shopping, news, social media, and other indulgences. No-prep! Includes a completed example for modeling and a scoring rubric. The directions for the activity are as follows: CHOOSE A CHARACTER Imagine your character in the present. What would this character have on his or her phone? What image or graphic would your character upload to the home screen? Choose apps from the categories: ENTERTAINMENT, SOCIAL MEDIA, SHOPPING, NEWS, AND SELF-INDULGENCES Complete the illustration/discussion component for each (150-225 words per category). Be sure to accurately represent the character’s traits demonstrated in the literature. I’ve included a completed activity using Beneatha from A Raisin in the Sun with suggestions for how to use the example to model expectations. _________________________________________________________________ There are many ways to use this activity in your classroom. Consider offering kids the following choices or choose one for the entire class: Poster/Collage: This is a great way for the artists in the class to demonstrate their knowledge of characterization while demonstrating mad art skills. Provide kids with a poster board that they can section off for each component of the activity. Completed projects can be displayed for a gallery walk. A variation of this strategy is to offer students old magazines (that pile leftover in the library from days gone by) or have students print images from the internet to glue onto poster boards. They also include the written portion next to their graphics. Hard Copy: Students can create a cover with the phone template and devote a page to each of the components of the activity. I’ve done this often with great success. I then devote some class time to passing them around to appreciate classmates’ work Digital Copy: You can push the activity out to students so that they can complete the tasks on the computer or devices in whatever format they or you choose (docs, slides, PowerPoint) and submit digitally. These are easily shared with the class as well. Collaborative Presentation: I recently had my seniors complete this activity for Othello in collaborative groups. They all contributed to a slide presentation. It was fabulous because for each component they provided links that took the class to music videos, movie clips, newscasts, etc. It was quite engaging and so much fun! The kids really love this project, and I get awesome results. Fun to grade too! Thank you for your consideration of this resource.

This purchase contains three character-focused assignments (Character Analysis Packet, Character-Theme Graffiti Table, and a Character Review Project), including multiple opportunities for art and group work. In a given unit, you likely do not have time (nor will students have the interest) in completing all three. Peruse the options and choose the best one or two for your students. Character Analysis Packet is an organized space for students to track the development of key characters throughout a text. There is guided space for students to illustrate, describe, record and analyze evidence, and finally synthesize their ideas. This is a great tool for students of all levels to use throughout the duration of the text. Students track the development of the protagonist in addition to tracking how minor characters impact that development in this Character Analysis Packet. I like to print the entire packet at the beginning of the unit and encourage students to work alone or in groups (depending on my classroom dynamics) to explore the characters more deeply. This packet is clearly formatted for students to, first, sketch and describe each character before delving into the deeper analysis and synthesis. This packet includes a graphic-organizer style notes for students and a “Notes to Teacher” document with tips for including and extending this packet. Character-Theme Graffiti Table is an action-packed way to get students analyzing minor characters and how they support theme development in a text. Students work in groups to add evidence and analysis to ideas graffiti-style, encouraging them to build and develop other groups' work. This is a great team-building lesson and segues nicely into essay planning. Get students moving and making deep connections between minor characters and themes in this creative activity. Students work in small groups to connect minor characters to themes graffiti-style and code their answers to ensure they are analyzing and supporting their ideas with evidence. I love using this to get students carefully considering the roles of minor characters in the plot. This lesson contains a task card with instructions and printable character checklist for students, a PowerPoint to guide instructions, and “Notes to Teacher” with tips on implementing this activity in your classroom. Character Review Project has students work in groups to generate ideas for the main characters pertaining to a non-human topic (for example: food, animals, kitchen utensils, etc.) Students can work individually with one character from the story or in pairs or groups with more characters. The wording on each document changes slightly to reflect individual, partner, or group work. Students draw, return to the novel for quotes, and write explanations that connect their ideas and their evidence. This is a creative project that encourages abstract thinking and evidence-based writing.

This activity has students choose sides on various issues raised in A Raisin in the Sun by Lorraine Hansberry. Works great as a pre-reading or anticipation activity, or perhaps as something to use after the story as a review or reflection exercise. Includes 10 key issues that students have to take a stand on and defend. My students absolutely love when we do these Agree or Disagree activities instead of an anticipation guide. Gets students up and moving, and often leads to great discussions. The key is they have to be able to defend their point of view. Puts them on the spot sometimes, but definitely a worthwhile skill to develop. Includes tips for teachers on how to utilize this in your classrooms.
