The vocabulary resources will help students learn, acquire, and utilize new words in their writing and speaking. The vocabulary resources will assist students in building their own vocabulary and engage them in varied activities to maximize their vocabulary’s expansion. With the 6 different vocabulary lists, the resource allows for differentiation and flexible implementation. Below is an outline of the materials included to help teach challenging vocabulary words in The Story That Cannot Be Told by J. Kasper Kramer and build your students’ vocabulary knowledge.
 
Vocabulary Words List: The lists identify 60 vocabulary words that are used throughout the novel. Use one list, use two, or more to differentiate for your students’ needs.
 
Vocabulary Graphic Organizers: The organizers offer different format options for students to take notes on the identified words. You can choose the format that works best for your classroom, but each one will see students build their knowledge of the word through application stems.
 
Vocabulary Words Activity: The vocabulary activity is a fun game students can play individually, in pairs, groups, or as a whole class. Students roll a die and the number rolled pairs with a specific task for students to complete. Students must either define the word, provide synonyms, provide antonyms, draw the meaning, create a sentence, or make a personal connection.
 
Vocabulary Flashcards: Flashcards are a great source of practice, and we know students need to practice their vocabulary. These 60 flashcards will help them! Each one provides space for students to write the definition of the word, synonyms, antonyms, and to draw a visual to help them remember it. The cards can be creatively used – whether that means homework practice, interactive games, or any other great idea – to suit your students and class.
 
Vocabulary Crossword Puzzles: The 6 crossword puzzles test students’ knowledge of ten vocabulary words. The puzzle prompts include definitions, synonyms, antonyms, or fill-in-the-blank to challenge students to apply their knowledge of definitions in different formats.
 
Vocabulary Words Practice: The 6 practice activities see students apply their knowledge of the vocabulary words through various tasks, including proper usage in a sentence, multiple-choice, drawings, and more. The activities are a great way to help students understand the meaning of the vocabulary words and deepen their understanding of the words’ meanings and usage.
 
Vocabulary Quizzes: The 6 vocabulary quizzes assess students’ knowledge on ten vocabulary words. All quizzes are matching and fill-in-the-blank.
 
Vocabulary Resources Answer Key: The answer key provides the definition, location of the word in The Story That Cannot Be Told, part of speech, synonyms, antonyms, and an example sentence for all vocabulary words. Answer keys for crossword puzzles, practice activities, and quizzes are also provided.
 
Digital Links: This resource is also technology friendly! It can be utilized in classrooms where computers or tablets are central to instruction because the resource has been adapted for digital completion. The resources include links for students to complete any work assigned, such as in-class tasks and quizzes, online via Google Slides™ and Google Forms.

The Story That Cannot Be Told History of the Soviet Bloc Nonfiction Readings & Activities

The 14 nonfiction close readings will build your students’ knowledge about the post-WWII period in history. With a particular focus on the Soviet Union and the Soviet Bloc, the readings illuminate the forces that contributed to deep tensions throughout the Cold War. Since The Story That Cannot Be Told is set in Romania, they focus on the Soviet Union and the Soviet Bloc in order to enhance your students’ understanding of the goals, principles, and tactics that shaped the story’s setting. Therefore, students will be able to synthesize across the nonfiction readings and the novel, building their critical thinking skills in the process. Students will learn about communism’s rise as a governing philosophy, the ways authoritarianism takes hold, and how ordinary people come to experience its effects. As they do, students will also practice key literacy skills aligned to the Common Core Standards, such as using textual evidence, identifying the author’s purpose, and making inferences, to name a few. By the time students finish reading, writing, and analyzing these materials, they will have grown in their ability to think critically, consider new perspectives, and carry with them a deeper understanding of history in the second half of the 20th century.
