 * Process:**

The learning styles survey was given to students one week prior to the actual start of the unit. The purpose of the learning styles survey is to assess how students feel they learn best. The results of this survey were combined with teacher observation to divide students into three distinct learning groups. A description of the groups and the activities that each engaged in are contained in the unit document. The method of implementation and individual group activities could be easily adapted to the instruction of any novel in any class.
