You mention chapter tests. Can you share those tests?

Is there a way for me to get a copy of the tests (with or without the keys) to the HOD unit? I find test writing to be a great weakness, and I love the rest of this unit.

You unit is excellent. You mention a list of literary phrases to help them become accustomed to discussing literature. Would you please share those.

Dear Ludy P. Aguada: Thank you for publishing your very helpful insights on teaching Conrad’s “Heart of Darkness”. I’m just wondering whether you would be so kind as to share two additional pieces of information: 1) Your list of literary phrases and, 2) the set of reading questions developed by K. Tully and R. Litchfield. If there’s anything I can do to facilitate your transferring that information to me, just kindly let me know and I’ll be very glad to do it. Best regards Salaroche

Dear Ludy P. Aguada: I, too, like the others above would like a list of the literary phrases, set of reading questions by K.Tully and R. Litchfield, and the tests with answers. I understand if that cannot be provided. The lesson plans and insights you provide on the website are very helpful. I am finding with each year that I teach AP Literature, higher level thinking is hard to come by. Most students are not doing enough reading on their own to understand allusions or critical thinking questions, and if they are reading books, perhaps these books are not classics, or higher level vocabulary books with deep meaning. Thank you so much. Kay Berry

Hi, and thank you for sharing your HOD unit. If possible, can I access your formative and summative assessments for this unit? Thank you!

I have waited 6 years to add Heart of Darkness into my lessons. This site gave me a great launching pad to use! I am thrilled to be teaching it and excited to see how far my students' analytical skills will grow. I don't need quizzes, but would love to see a few Socratic discussion questions that garner the most responses in your classes.

Hi, I know everyone is clamoring for those phrases you give students to help them converse at the college level. I would love to have a copy of them, if you are willing to share them. I can't imagine how helpful they might be to my students. Thanks so much, Tracy

Is it possible to get a copy of the discussion questions from Tully and Litchfield? They are no longer available at the web address listed. Also, I'd love copies of the tests and literary phrases, if possible. Thank you for the great website!

- quizzes over each chapter - literary phrases I am attempting to teach this to my Advanced English I students - with much guidance! I love how your lessons use Socratic Seminars (they love doing those so that will fit right in with their personalities.) Thank you so much for any help you are willing to offer me.
