About the Novel:
Treasure Island is one of the most perfect examples of an exciting classic adventure tale. Masterfully crafted, this stunning book of piracy on the tropic seas is an unforgettable tale of treachery between good and evil. Developed from an imaginary map that Stevenson and his stepson made while on vacation, Treasure Island is an all-time classic for those who love romance and adventure. Perhaps the reason for the book's allure to children is the famous hero-villain character of Long John Silver, with his unscrupulous buccaneer-rogues on their quest for gold.

Best unit EVER for Treasure Island! My 7th graders love this!"
Great resource!! Love this book
This is perfect for my students. I like how the chapters are grouped together so students can enjoy reading fluidly without having to analyze each chapter to death.
I used the various portions of this packet for warm-up activities and reading-check quizzes with 8th graders. I appreciate the variety of ways you wrote questions for critical thinking with this unit - predictions, quote analysis, matching, sequencing, true/false, etc. Great variety and a wonderful resource!
This was a great resource to go along with our novel study!
Great activities!
