Front Desk Novel Study
The Front Desk Novel Study is a comprehensive set of standards-aligned instructional materials for teaching Front Desk by Kelly Yang. With over 100+ materials, students will deeply engage with the novel and develop their literacy skills. The close reading activities, literary analysis resources, pre-reading resources, vocabulary, assessments, and argumentative writing resources all provide opportunities for your students to practice and apply what will be their growing understanding of the novel. They also provide numerous ways for you to DIFFERENTIATE learning for your students, allowing you to choose the assignments that best support your students’ learning while being conducive to any classroom model.
Front Desk Chapter Questions
The comprehension and literary analysis resources for Front Desk will give students repeated opportunities to practice essential literacy skills aligned to the Common Core State Standards. For every chapter grouping, students will have to answer rigorous, text-based questions that assess not only their ability to comprehend but also their ability to analyze key events. There are two sets of questions for each reading: Reading Response A (comprehension) and Reading Response B (analysis). The twin sets offer different levels of challenge for students to give you options for meeting the needs of all your learners. All 46 assignments include questions that require close reading of the text, which means your students will always be practicing essential skills. With numerous options for implementation, the resource also allows for differentiation and can enable accommodation that will meet the needs of all learners.
Front Desk Close Readings
The 23 close reading lessons explicitly focus on critical Common Core State Standards to develop students’ literacy proficiency. Using Front Desk as the foundational text for close reading, each lesson focuses on a particular skill, such as setting, conflict, tone, and plot, and provides students an opportunity to develop and demonstrate their ability to perform that skill. Each assignment also requires students to use textual evidence to support their claims. The resources could supply homework, facilitate guided reading groups, or stimulate whole class literacy discussions for each chapter grouping. You can choose the purpose that best suits your students and your classroom.
Front Desk Pre-Reading Resources
The Front Desk pre-reading resources will build your students’ understanding of the history of Chinese immigration to the United States, a topic that shapes the novel. By developing an understanding of this history, students will be able to engage with the themes of Front Desk in a thoughtful way. Instead of learning the characters’ experiences as isolated incidences, they will build their capacity to see these events on a continuum of history that continues to shape and influence society today. The resource includes 5 nonfiction readings, 3 activities, and an anticipation guide.
Front Desk Argumentative Writing Resources
The Front Desk writing resources teaches students argumentative writing through 14 mini-lessons, an essay assignment, and a final project. Each element of an argumentative essay is broken down and modeled before providing students the opportunity to draft their own example. With mini-lessons on thesis statements, topic sentences, conclusions and more, the resources provide a comprehensive resource for teaching this type of essay.
Front Desk Vocabulary
The vocabulary resources will engage students in varied activities to expand their vocabulary. The resources include materials to help teach challenging vocabulary words in Front Desk that will then build your students’ vocabulary. With 4 vocabulary lists of 10 words each and a crossword puzzle, practice assignment, and quiz for each set, the materials provide opportunities for differentiation to suit the needs of the classroom.
