What a Novel Idea!: Projects and Activities for Young Adult Literature

Designed around the new IRA/NCTE Standards, (reading, writing, representing, viewing, speaking, and listening) these 60 stimulating activities applicable to a variety of novels create opportunities for students to develop their skills as readers, writers, and speakers. Three sections center on reading and writing activity projects (e.g., essays, news stories, letters), visual display projects (e.g., charts, posters, bookmarks), and speaking and listening activities.
