Teachers, save “The Phantom Tollbooth: choice board of a…” to assign it to your class.

You will have 5-7 weeks to read The Phantom Tollbooth and complete at least ten points worth of activities. You may work individually, with a partner, or in a small group. If you turn in something collaboratively, for each person to get the points, the activity must clearly include everyone’s input and be stellar work. You may choose to read a few chapters and then do an activity and so on, or you may read the whole book first before doing any activities. Just be aware if you choose to read the whole book first that you may run out of time. Student Template: page 1: Choice board with point values.
