Early in the novel we focused our attention on getting acquainted with the novel's ten main characters. To ensure my students were engaging with the text in a deeper and more meaningful way, I broke each class (of which there are two) into ten groups and assigned each group a character to keep track of. These groups created character profiles for their assigned characters as a way to gain a fuller understanding of each character. The profiles were then made into posters, which were put up in the room so the whole class had access to each profile. This characterization was, for many of my Freshmen, their first foray into literary analysis. \r\n\r\nAlongside our lessons on character analysis, students learned about red herrings and foreshadowing, both of which they had ample time to practice identifying throughout the novel. With each section read students maintained a reading log where they were able to keep track of red herrings, foreshadowing, and any suspects and clues they may have discovered. \r\n\r\nAs we ventured further into the novel and characters started dying off, character groups were tasked with either conducting close readings of the moments leading up to their characters death looking for clues and suspects, or defending the innocence of their character. Each group would have an opportunity to present their characters death to the class in a sort of mock trial of sorts, and once all the evidence was presented to the class - and suspects had a chance to defend themselves - the rest of the class would manipulate the \"murder board\" so that we had a visual representation of the victims and their presumed killers. \r\n\r\nUnfortunately we are still finishing up the book - only two chapters and an epilogue to go! However, this novel set has allowed me to introduce countless lessons to my students. It has been interactive and fun, and I will absolutely be using this lesson again in the future. By weeks end we'll have finished reading and I will be teaching a lesson on culpability hierarchy, then have students play \"judge\" and rank each character's accused crimes in order of least to most severe and compare this to their fate in the novel. This will be part of a larger discussion about the theme of vigilante justice. We will conclude the unit, and the year, with an essay about the killer, Justice Wargrave, and whether his actions were in fact justice. \r\n\r\nAs a first year teacher I am so deeply grateful for the opportunity to explore a unit of my own making. While there is certainly room for improvement, I feel that overall it was thought provoking, engaging, and fun. I most heartily offer my thanks to all who helped fund this project.","fullyFundedDate":1738789126457,"projectUrl":"project/murder-mystery-literary-unit/9089636/","projectTitle":"Murder Mystery Literary Unit","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. B","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9722471_orig.jpg?crop=1125,1125,x0,y26&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1738614811555","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9722471"},{"teacherId":5308346,"projectId":8856051,"letterContent":"On behalf of our marine science students, we extend our deepest gratitude for your generous support.
