HATCHET--19 chapters of DIFFICULT multiple choice questions that includes figurative language, comprehension, vocabulary, and critical thinking. This is a "state-style" test which means the text may be used as the questions are answered. It works well as a read at home unit. Chapter one has more questions than the other chapters; because it is the introduction. These are NOT just comprehension questions over each chapter. I do have several products that are like that, or I can develop one. Thanks so much for your purchase. Please follow me, and share with your friends and family. Let me know if you have a specific story or novel need; I will be glad to develop any type questions for any type reading section. Email me at zelayaa.az@gmail.com for your reading needs.

This fun and engaging review game is the perfect way to review your Hatchet novel study. I typically put the class into small groups and ask a member of the group to choose a color and number. That is the question that they have to answer. If correct they get one point. Then I move to the next group. Alternatively the whole class answers and then we tally up the points to get a winner. I run it on an interactive whiteboard but would be equally successful on a projector, computer or TV screen. When you start the game press the shuffle button to randomize the questions ensuring that no game is ever the same. This means that this Hatchet Jeopardy game came be used multiple times with the one class. This is a PowerPoint Macro Show. To run the game double click the file and make sure you say "yes" to running macros. If you do not the questions will not shuffle correctly. I have tested on a PC but it should work on other devices. If this is your first time with Macros let me know by personal message and I am happy to answer all your questions. Enjoy
