I just got done doing "The Sound of Thunder" by Ray Bradbury. I found a lesson on line and adapted it to my needs. I can email it to you if you would like. Took about 4 days total - but we also needed to work on some other things for another class. I teach 9th grade students who are non proficient readers.

Classic short stories from authors like Ray Bradbury have really caught on with the students I work with. Look print them up and let their imagination work. I usually have them draw pictures to help the story.
