Four Fun Reading Comprehension Activities for Any Novel

- Four game boards containing literal, inferential, & real-world and personal (reader) connection comprehension questions.
- Also contain questions on language, literary style, theme, author’s purpose, and other literary elements.
- Designed for use in English classrooms, grades 6 – 8.
- Game boards may be used in various ways; for journaling, homework, while reading or as consolidation.
- Can be adapted for use as individual, partner or group-work, with and without teacher supervision.
- Games require decks of playing cards and dice (or computer generations – random.org has playing card generators and dice rollers).
- Students enjoy the random and gamified nature of the activities, while reflecting on their reading and analyzing literature through cooperative learning activities.
- Questions are recycled across the four game boards.
