They will choose a theme and a level before proceeding, and can also choose extra challenge levels throughout the game. LITERATURE LOG RESPONSE STARTERS: http://www.d81.w-cook.k12.il.us/lincoln/jzambuto/litresponses.htm Do you have your students keep a reading or literature response journal? It's a great idea, and gets students thinking about characters, plot elements, authors' techniques, etc. Find a great list of literature response journaling topics here, perhaps assigning your students a different one each week.
