What educators are saying
My students really enjoyed completing this webquest! Thank you for making it simple for them to gather the background knowledge they needed to comprehend the novel better.
This was a perfect activity to get my kids into a 1960's mindset. They were able to work on it independently and it provided a lot of opportunities for questions and discussions. They were completely engaged while working on it.
Description
Getting ready to teach The Outsiders? Part of our job as ELA teachers is for students to research other time periods for understanding as we delve into new novels and new time periods that our students only experience through pop culture. Let's give them the reality of the time period as much as possible!
What's imperative for students to understand going into The Outsiders? There is so much language and many references in the book that make no sense without context, so I developed this WebQuest over the years to help my students understand what on Earth S.E. Hinton is talking about!
Google Slide document so it's easily copied on Google Classroom or Schoology for each student to work on individually and submit their work.
