Our first novel this year is Tuck Everlasting by Natalie Babbitt. We will take a closer look at the characters of the novel involving conflict and decisions them will make. You will make a character page for each character.
With this novel, you will receive some vocabulary words found in the story. There will be a quiz on each set of vocabulary words. The more words you know, the better reader you will be.
You will take a comprehension test to assess your understanding and skills for sections of the novel. Please use quotes for the novel to support your answer. Remember to edit your work for spelling capitalization, and punctuation. You will lose a point for each mistake.
As part of a final project for this novel, you complete an acrostic poem for some characters in the novel. This link will provide you with directions to the Tuck final project.
