Activites for all 15 poems based on the ‘ARTWARS’ mnemonic by Isabelle Wallace. This works very well if you put students into groups based on each part of ARTWARS, and have 2 or 3 student leaders collect their ideas on an ipad or similar using share folders in Googledrive or something similar. You can display the ideas in real time by logging into Googledrive on your class pc. I did this with Evernote and it was great. They can also email you homework straight to your Evernote folders. (Not sure if Googledrive has this feature). And when you are ready, give the students a public link for the folders so they can revise. Enjoy!

Assessments include the pack, creative projects, and an opinion column about the value of murder mysteries. The focus is a mix of language and literature. Please leave a review so I can improve this unit with your ideas!
