To prepare for teaching Into the Wild, start with some engaging pre-reading activities to really spark their interest. In these Into the Wild lesson plans, I also include instructions and materials for students to create a booklet to add to as they participate in pre-reading, during reading, and post-reading activities. They can even put the bookle...
Students begin their journey with Into the Wild by tracking McCandless’s adventures. At each of his stops, they will design a “merit badge” that represents what kind of impact he made on himself or others in this section. Not only does this help students summarize the main points of each section, but it also serves as a great review throughout the ...
Chapter 2 details the discovery of McCandless’s bus and, ultimately, his body. While stories such as this are typically told with a tone of objectivity, this chapter is full of literary elements. The activity for chapter 2 is perfect for any new or veteran educator looking to teach Into the Wild! As students read chapter 2, they can complete an “in...
Before reading chapter 4, use the gallery walk included in these Into the Wild lesson plans to get students up and engaged with the content of the chapter. First you’ll divide students into seven groups, and then they will rotate around the room discussing each prompt. The prompts in this lesson provide students with opportunities to confront diffi...
This Into the Wild Unit Plan has a fun and engaging activity for chapter 6 included in the booklet they made at the beginning of the unit.

Throughout teaching Into the Wild, students reflect on the two most common lenses from which to view McCandless: 1. One of admiration and compassion 2. One of critique and condescension. In chapter 8, students read letters from these two points-of-view and find words that reveal their tone. Next, they rewrite the letters in a different tone to dig ...
This Into the Wild unit focuses a lot on adventure. It’s important for all students to be able to see themselves in the themes of books. In chapter 9, students go on a webquest to read about diverse adventures from around the globe. For example, Jessica Nabongo is the first Black woman to visit every country in the world.
Who doesn’t love a good debate? Students always love getting to argue different perspectives (with a little mediation of course), so the “pilgrimage worksheet and debate” for this chapter is always a hit. This activity is complete with a linked article for students to practice analyzing a supplemental text while answering, and debating, questions r...
After reading chapter 18, students can read an insightful article about how McCandless died. The article is informative, but it is also very telling of Krakauer’s craft and dedication to telling this story. This article lends itself perfectly for a class discussion to finish the story. A perfect way to end this book is to have students design a hom...
While there is a well-adapted movie version ofInto the Wild, I prefer to show a movie pairing instead. For one, the movie is rated R and showing it isn’t allowed without permission. For two, teaching Into the Wild takes around 3-4 weeks so I’m usually pressed for time. And lastly, this 37 minute documentary I found is SO GOOD and really helps stude...
