Hi guys! I have a new product on the Extreme English Teachers Store - questions and answers for every chapter in Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time. The chapters are short (mostly) and that makes for very adaptable lesson plans, because let's face it - you can plan out the semester all you want, but between special assemblies, drills, inclement weather days, and just the differences in the speed of each class, those plans are usually off track sooner than later. This book is great in meeting your needs on the fly.
The chapter by chapter questions let you mix and match to meet the speed of your class and can be used as review, reading questions, check up quizzes, or moved into an online quiz format like Quizizz or Blooket pretty easily.
These questions were written for struggling readers in mind, so most are plot level, with a few deeper thoughts. Some are opinion questions and most are aimed at helping the students focus on what will be important later on in the book. A favorite tactic for me to use is to ask my students why I asked that particular question. Gets them thinking.
If you haven't taught Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, you should! Read this post on why.

I have plans for more activities for this novel to come out. If only I wasn't so busy teaching, I could spend more time on this! :)
