Literature opens new insights into life and language. Help children enjoy good books and learn foundational reading and literature skills with this "Literature Kit" from Classroom Complete Press.
Created for easy use by both teachers and students, the resources are divided into sections: a teacher's guide, student handouts, an answer key, plus graphic organizers and a rubric. The teacher's section provides a summary of the story along with a list of vocabulary for each chapter. The student worksheets include both "before you read" activities (which activate background knowledge, guide connections, and introduce vocabulary) as well as "after you read activities" (which check comprehension and provide opportunities for thoughtful consideration of the text). Six writing tasks and three graphic organizers are also included. The "easy marking" answer key features columns of answers that allow teachers to simply line up the worksheet with the key to quickly see the correct answers.
Grades 3-4. 55 classroom-reproducible pages; consumable workbook. Aligned with Common Core State Standards.
Please Note: the book Because of Winn-Dixie by Kate DiCamillo is required and not included with this study guide.
