Item description

Support the development of close reading skills for high school with this set of analysis questions on Shirley Jackson’s short story “The Lottery.” A variety of question types facilitates the process of analyzing character development, examining how word choices influence a reader’s interpretations, applying knowledge of literary devices, and more. An answer key is included. Materials are delivered in Word Document and PDF formats. By engaging with this resource, students will…

  • Identify what the text states explicitly and implicitly
  • Define unfamiliar or challenging vocabulary terms in context
  • Determine the tone of a particular passage
  • Determine the author’s intent and its effect on readers
  • Apply knowledge of literary devices (foreshadowing)

This resource may facilitate small-group discussions in which students decode language and pose/respond to questions relating to plot, broad topics, and character development. Using this resource for structured guidance, students will improve their ability to present information, conclusions, and supporting textual evidence clearly and convincingly.

In addition to helping students gain deeper understanding of the material and greater confidence in their ability to read and comprehend complex texts, this resource helps prepare students for ACT reading question types.
