Lesson Plan for To Kill a Mockingbird

Divide the students into four groups. Each group will receive a different hands on assignment. This assignment is to be given after the class has read the book.

Group 1:

Construct a relief map of Maycomb County. Include homes of the main characters, and other landmarks of the county. Present your map to the class.

Group 2:

Do any of your fellow students remind you of characters in the novel? Photograph them and creatively present your display to the class.

Group 3:

Collect poems, songs, stories, etc. dealing with prejudice/discrimination of any kind. Create a display (perhaps even a recording) and present it to the class.

Group 4:

Write and video tape a scene during which a person is a victim of discrimination. Show it to the class.

Group 5:

Use the internet, magazines, encyclopedias, books, etc to find pictures and make a collage depicting acts of discrimination and kindness as well. Present your collage to the class.
