The Lottery: by Shirley JacksonLesson and Meme Activity$0
A 2–3 day lesson that gets students analyzing Shirley Jackson at a level a standard essay never could.
What is this?
You already know what happens when students finish The Lottery — the silence, the shock, the "wait, WHAT." This lesson takes that energy and turns it into one of the most creative, standards-aligned activities you'll teach all year. Students create an original literary meme that proves they understood the story — the themes, the twist, the characters, the author's craft. It sounds simple. It is wildly hard to pull off well. And that's exactly the point.

  

 Why it works 
Higher-order thinking in disguise — To make a meme that's actually funny and accurate, students have to deeply understand plot, theme, character, and tone. That's analysis. They just don't realize they're doing it. 

Built-in AI literacy — Students use MagicStudent to brainstorm ideas, then must change at least 75% of the output. It's a natural, low-stakes way to teach responsible AI use. 

Every learner can shine — The kid who hates essays? They will nail this. Writers, designers, comedians, and critical thinkers all have a lane here. 

Standards-aligned, no stretching required — Hits RL.7.1, RL.7.3, W.7.4, and W.7.6 cleanly. Textual evidence, theme analysis, digital writing, and publishing — all in one project. 

Gallery walk built in — Day 3 peer review doubles as a celebration. Watching students defend their memes is genuinely one of the best classroom moments you'll have.
