"Posted" by John David Anderson - Novel Unit
"Posted" by John David Anderson is a page turner book, and I created this unit so that students would have some responsibility at chapter ends but would not be delayed long. Consequently, for every chapter I have three (mostly multiple part) questions, similar to exit tickets but a little longer and more detailed. I broke up the story into four units: Ch.1 to 5; Ch.6 to 10; Ch.7 to 15, Ch. 16 to 20. It should do well for a read-aloud, all-class reading, or small groups. Include
