Somehow in all the craziness of the end of the year, which is extra hectic this time, I managed to finish another novel. My students are halfway through this book and will finish before the end of the school year, so I just wanted to make sure I did as well.
While reading and discussing the novel with my youngsters, I created a teacher guide to go along with Lemony Snicket's second prequel to The Series of Unfortunate Events. In this novel, the narrator Lemony is challenged with another mysterious case of finding the missing brilliant chemist Cleo Knight.
In true Snicket fashion, the book left me frustrated with a whole new set of unanswered questions. The third prequel, Shouldn't You Be In School? isn't scheduled for release until October of this year. Oh Lemony, why do you do this to me?
The 20 page teacher guide is available here on TpT!
Many of my small groups absolutely love The Series of Unfortunate Events by Lemony Snicket.
One group is reading the prequels but is quite upset only two of the four have been released.
I told them this is how I felt growing up waiting for Harry Potter sequels and to deal with it. (Perhaps not the best teacher response but they need realize not everything in life is handed to them immediately. Sometimes they have to wait for what they want.)
For one of our must do activities, they were instructed to write a letter to an author, sharing their feelings about the book.
Here are some of the responses to Lemony:
Quite the sassy remark!
I love their passion.
Happy reading!
