Crash Course Literature The adventures of Huckleberry Finn p1 (season 3 ep 2)

This visual note-taking worksheet is designed to be used in conjunction with the popular Crash Course Literature YouTube video about Mark Twain’s The adventures of Huckleberry Finn. The video covers biographical information about the author, provenance of the text, the plot of the text, the language of the text, and reasons for the text’s enduring legacy. The printable worksheet encourages active listening and spurs students to think deeply about how to read, understand and interpret different literature texts. The episode runs for approximately 12 minutes, so mini-lessons could run for between 25-45 minutes depending on the class. What’s included: 1. Visual note-taking worksheet (black and white) 2. Teacher notes (not an answer key as answers will vary) 3. Hyperlink to the video (at the top of the teacher notes) How to use: 1. Introduce the concept of visual note-taking (if your class is unfamiliar). Google (or visit the TPT store of) Math Giraffe for more information about the benefits of doodle notes. 2. Explain that you will be watching a short video about reading literature and that students are to use the worksheet to take notes. Explain that they are encouraged to write, highlight, draw, shade, and scribble while listening/watching. 3. After the video has played, use it as a starting point for discussion about the importance of reading literature and discuss what students have created/written as part of their notes. Please note that some worksheets have more than one version to account for spelling differences between the USA and UK/Australia. Ensure you print the applicable worksheet. Teacher notes are written with American spelling. If you enjoyed this product, other products you may find useful include: 1.
