Surrounded by the massive moving walls of the Maze, the Glade contains many important locations that can sometimes be difficult for students to fully visualize while reading. In this The Maze Runner activity, students collect important details about locations such as the Homestead, the Box, the Deadheads, the Gardens, the Blood House, the Maze Doors, and more before using evidence from the text to create a detailed, labeled map of the setting. This resource includes a planning page to gather text evidence and two map template options to help students organize information and represent the setting visually. A completed map answer key is included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr style=\"border: none; border-top: 1px solid #000; margin: 25px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis is included in a unit plan:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u0026gt;\u0026gt;\u0026gt; \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.shop.prestoplans.com\/products\/the-maze-runner-unit-plan-james-dashner-novel-study-reading-unit\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eThe Maze Runner Unit Plan\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr style=\"border: none; border-top: 1px solid #000; margin: 25px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded in The Maze Runner Activity - Design a Glade Map:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e➡️ \u003cstrong\u003eThe Maze Runner Glade Map Organizer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Students use this organizer to collect and record important details about the Glade as they read the novel.
