What educators are saying
This was a great resource to supplement an APUSH lesson on the Salem Witch Trials. I particularly liked the "eulogy" assignment at the end as it required students to analyze both primary and secondary sources to write about a victim of their choosing.

Classroom success stories from other teachers who have loved this resource: ♥ "I loved that this one asks students to think about the material but isn't so invasive that they feel they are just answering questions without an opportunity to actually enjoy the information. Loved the layout and the alternative format--can be used as a formative assessment, admit slip, or review!" ♥ "GREAT resource! You can use it in class, or leave it for a sub. Directions for a sub are included! I love the questions - they're not just on a page numbered 1, 2, 3, etc, but are very creatively placed on the page. As if that's not enough, a quiz is also included. Very nice!" ♥ "Great activity for assessment for understanding after reading the play! Very comprehensive and easy to follow for students. Also great for sub work!" ♥ "This caught my students' attention. I love all of your work. Thank you for the time and effort put into each one--it shows."

The White Witch first meets Edmund, one of the children, and manipulates him into betraying his siblings by promising him power and the title of "Prince" if he brings them to her. Edmund, being easily swayed by her promises, betrays his siblings, leading them into the clutches of the White Witch. However, the appearance of Aslan, the Great Lion and the true ruler of Narnia, changes the course of events. Aslan sacrifices himself to save Edmund's life and is resurrected shortly afterward. Aslan and his army join forces with the children and other loyal creatures of Narnia to overthrow the White Witch and bring peace to the land. The White Witch is ultimately defeated in a climactic battle, and Narnia is restored to its former glory. The children, now known as the Kings and Queens of Narnia, reign as just and wise rulers. The story explores themes of good versus evil, redemption, and the power of sacrifice. The character of the White Witch represents evil and tyranny, while Aslan embodies goodness, selflessness, and sacrifice. The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe is a timeless tale that captivates readers with its magical world and compelling characters. It has become a beloved classic in children's literature and continues to inspire imaginations around the world. In conclusion, the White Witch in The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe is a formidable antagonist who creates conflict and tension throughout the story. However, ultimately, her reign of terror is undone by the combined efforts of Aslan and the children, leading to the restoration of peace and justice in Narnia..
Reviews for "The Importance of Siblings in 'The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe"
1. Sarah - 2/5 stars - I found "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe" to be quite dull and uninteresting. The plot was slow and predictable, and I couldn't connect with any of the characters. The world-building felt underdeveloped, and I struggled to immerse myself in the fantastical setting. Overall, I was quite disappointed with this classic children's book.
2. Michael - 1/5 stars - This book was a complete letdown for me. I couldn't understand why it's considered a classic. The writing was uninspiring, and the story lacked depth and complexity. The religious undertones felt forced and heavy-handed, which didn't appeal to me as a reader. I much prefer other fantasy books that offer more nuanced and engaging storytelling.
3. Emily - 2/5 stars - I couldn't get into "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe" at all. The characters felt one-dimensional, and the dialogue was stilted and unrealistic. The pacing was off, with long stretches of boredom followed by rushed action sequences. I know many people love this book, but it just didn't captivate me like I had hoped. Perhaps it's better suited for younger readers.
4. John - 3/5 stars - While I didn't hate "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe," I didn't find it particularly enjoyable either. The writing style didn't engage me, and I struggled to stay interested in the story. The religious allegory was heavy-handed, and the characters lacked depth. Overall, it was an average read for me, and I don't see myself revisiting this book in the future.
5. Laura - 2/5 stars - I wanted to like "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe," but I found it to be rather boring. The plot seemed too simplistic, and the world-building didn't live up to my expectations. The characters felt underdeveloped, and the narrative lacked the excitement and depth I usually look for in a fantasy novel. It's possible that I missed the appeal of this book, but it just didn't resonate with me.
