Remedia Publications The Hobbit: A Teaching Guide - Challenging Level | Lesson Plans, Literature Study, Classroom Activities, Homeschool Curriculum, Reading Comprehension & Critical Thinking

This is an excellent teacher resource. It contains vocabulary words, project ideas, and detailed questions. I really used this book to help gain a better understanding of The Hobbit.

I've been teaching for 8 years. I teach 7th grade literature both gifted and talented as well as resource students. This study guide is excellent if you are looking for an in-depth study of The Hobbit. It is set up in an easy-to-use format with higher level chapter questions, vocab with definitions and page numbers, chapter summaries, writing activities, and "strategies" on literary terms. Some parts are difficult for my resource students, but it is easy to tailor the curriculum to meet the needs of all of your students. The students especially enjoy the "strategy" in which they translate the runes and the one about the maps. I highly recommend this resource!

Excellent resource to use when reading The Hobbit. I would not recommend it to teachers to use in any grade below fifth. This resource is at the advanced level.

This is a great product and very helpful in my classroom. There are many higher level and challenging activities.

Good teaching aid for 8th or 9th grade students. Too much writing for 7th grade students.

I purchased this product along with The Hobbit: A Unit Plan by Mary B. Collins and A Guide for Using The Hobbit in the Classroom by John Carratello. I like this product very much for the higher level thinking activities, lessons, and strategies. For my purposes at this time (I am not currently teaching gifted classes), the Collins unit is better, but there are several activities I especially like from this book. The Runes translation activity my students enjoyed. The Carratello book is much simpler and the activities are more tangential, although I found the riddle activity useful in that book as well. The advantage of the Collins product is that it is a PDF file on CD and can be word processed for different purposes. The advantage of this product is that the format is already fine for photocopying and student use.
