Ernest HemingwayA modern alternative to SparkNotes and CliffsNotes, SuperSummary offers high-quality Study Guides with detailed chapter summaries and analysis of major themes, characters, and more. For select classroom titles, we also provide Teaching Guides with discussion and quiz questions to prompt student engagement.
Use these activities to engage all types of learners, while requiring that they refer to and incorporate details from the text over the course of the activity.
ACTIVITY 1: Travel Log
Imagine that Jake and his group of friends are staying in your neighborhood (or a place that you know very well). Create a “travel log” in which Jake narrates his impressions of what they eat and drink, who they meet, what they talk about, and what they see. Aim to mimic Jake’s voice as closely as possible. It might be particularly helpful to reread chapter 10 before writing.
