The Devil in the White City- Become an Alienist
This exercise is to be used after students have read chapters 3 and 5 from Erik Larson's The Devil in the White City. It lists a brief psychological profile and asks students to find textual evidence to prove this profile correct. I use it to prep for written tasks on the NYS Regents, but it is an excellent exercise for any teacher seeking to help students with citing evidence and providing parenthetical citations in their written work.
