Of Mice and Men Reading Booklets

Of Mice and Men Bundle

This bundle includes: 1) **Six booklets**, one for each section of John Steinbeck’s “Of Mice and Men”. * The booklets include the full, original text interspersed with reading comprehension questions. * It also includes (in yellow) some careful explanations of sections that need language clarified or context considered. * There are images and section headings placed in the booklet too to make the reading more digestible for pupils. 2) **Four knowledge organisers** *for the first four chapters of John Steinbeck’s “Of Mice and Men”, including: A “clock task” activity where they collect information about 12 elements of the first chapter, with the goal of filling in each hour of the worksheet. “Bubble” boxes for the second chapter with 11 prompts for information to locate and collect. A fun, competitive, pyramid shaped quiz for the third chapter with 15 questions, totalling 35 points. Each tier of the pyramid has questions of various values, increasing with challenge and culminating in a 5 mark “Point Evidence Explain” paragraph. Answers are not available but they won’t be difficult for a teacher to find following a reading of the chapter. Finally, for chapter 4, a “Thinking and Linking” grid that challenges pupils to consider and collect evidence that reflects the dynamics between 6 sets of characters. I found this to be great preparation for exam style questions and considering the relationships between characters.
