Description
This is a teaching unit to accompany Christopher Paul Curtis’ novel Bud, Not Buddy. Included you will find ready-made, Common Core aligned handouts as well as links to Google Slides to help you cover many Common Core standards. A black and white copy and colored copy are included so that you can print it. As a third option, you can use the activities in TpT Easel! There are also three tests included in printable and Google Forms format.
Students will examine elements such as point of view, imagery, irony, and theme. With these handouts and/or slides, students will also take a look at the author’s craft by analyzing things such as characterization and figurative language. Writing opportunities are woven into the unit as well, and of course, tests! Everything is ready for you to print and teach, use on TpT Easel, or send to Google Classroom! You have three options! The best part is that once you purchase this unit, you can use it for years and years.
This unit will work well for a whole-class read, as an independent novel study, or for literature circles! It's also distance learning friendly!
