Whispers of Time

Students read a descriptive passage about Mina discovering a mysterious room connected to the past inside a clockmaker’s shop. After reading, they complete a title reimagining task by creating a new title for the story and explaining why it fits. Students analyze what the original title suggests, how a new title could shift readers’ expectations, and how titles influence interpretation. This worksheet builds students’ understanding of how authors use titles to convey mood, theme, or focus within fictional texts.
