A staggering amount of work went into compiling this vocabulary resource for Carson McCullers' The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter. The overview provides a rationale for the strategy and information about tier 1, 2, and 3 words. The 19-page list records, page-by-page, definitions, background information, illustrations, and links to related resources for vocabulary words and allusions. A great resource.

Instructional Ideas

Rather then distributing the list, assign portions of the list to class groups and have them provide the definitions, annotations, and images

  • Due to the controversial nature of some of the words and their meanings, preview the entire list before deciding to use the resource with your classes
