Maus Webquest
I can’t wait to begin this graphic novel with
my English I Special Education Pullout class. It is such a fun read on such an
interesting topic, and the fact that it is a graphic novel only makes it more
fun and challenging!
Since I’ve never taught a graphic novel
before, I will be sure to stumble through it the first time and make many
corrections for the next time. For now, this is what I have created. We are
going to begin with a webquest. I will assign partner groups different sets of
questions to look up, and after a day or two in the library, we will discuss
our findings as a class. Students usually love the webquests, and I might even spark some healthy competition with some candy for the first one done with the most accuracy.

Chapter Questions
I’m not sure
how I’ll tackle the novel exactly. I think we’ll read it together as a class
and just see how it goes. Ideally, I’d love to have two book groups, but I
think this group would benefit from whole class instruction and discussion. We’ll
see. Suggestions are welcome. We’ll probably read, discuss, and then answer
questions after discussion. I’ll make activities to break up the questions when
I see it is needed.
