This lesson plan was made as a summative assessment after reading the American novel, Of Mice and Men. It is essential that students have read the novel and have access to either an iPhone, iPad, or Mac Computer for completion of this project via the Pages App. Students are often disappointed and frustrated with the ending of John Steinbeck’s Of Mice and Men, feeling that there are many other solutions to the problems of the characters. They are not alone; thousands of readers have also pled the same case. Well now, they have their chance to rewrite the ending and give George and Lennie the resolutions they think they deserve. For this assignment, they are to rewrite the final chapter using the Pages App via iPhone or iPad. "… of Mice And Men …" by bjornmeansbear is licensed under CC BY-SA 2.0.
