Hatchet Lesson Plans

Hatchet by Gary Paulsen

Lesson Plans by Becky Harvey

Hatchet tells the story of Brian, a young boy who survives a plane crash that leaves him alone in the wilderness in Canada. Through internal conflict, external forces working against him, and with the help of his hatchet, Brian learns to survive on his own. Paulsen breaks down the different types of conflict and helps his readers better understand how a small event can affect the larger plot of a story.
