I'm starting two different novels this week in with my 6th grade lit classes. I'm doing Hatchet and Number the Stars. Anyone have any wonderful ideas?

Did a google search and found these --- have no idea if they are useful

You could have the students make their own survival kits. Also, we always complete a graphic organizer showing the items Brian has on him and how he could use them to survive. For example, he could use his paper money to help start a fire. It is always fun to see how the students use their imaginations for the items he has.
