Save time with this no-prep, printable webquest featuring worksheets that engage students in learning about the remarkable life and works of AUGUST WILSON.

- divide the questions and let students teach each other as they discover the answers.
You might also . . .
- direct students to the Wilson quotations at the end of the resource and ask them to use critical thinking to determine how they would fill in the missing words; then compare and contrast what they composed to what Wilson wrote.

An answer key is included.
