What educators are saying
It was great to have a literature guide to go with the book. There were some sections that students had to be more independent in, so that was good as well.
Description
This novel, by Ken Kesey, is an excellent novel to ready with higher level high school students and college students. It is extremely interesting and provides a lot of content to analyze and discuss.
Within this literature guide are deep and dynamic analytical questions that ask students to focus on quotes, characters, plot development, themes, literary devices, and writing assignments that ask students to provide a comprehensive review of the content.
There is background information about Ken Kesey, the evolution of mental institutions, activities on Sigmund Freud, and the impact of dreams and nightmares. There is a Final Project essay project included, a teacher guide, and teacher notes about the themes and content.
In addition, there are also Question of the Days, or Discussion Questions to provide students with additional information and complex concepts.
*Please provide feedback!! I really appreciate it!
