The Boxcar Children

The Boxcar Children DVD and Book Set includes the first chapter book in the classic series, plus the animated movie adaptation featuring Martin Sheen, JK Simmons, Joey King, Jadon Sand, Mackenzie Foy, and Zachary Gordon. In the beloved classic story, Henry, Jessie, Violet, and Benny are orphans. The only way they can stay together as a family is to make it on their own. So when the children find an abandoned boxcar in the woods, they decide to call it home---and become the Boxcar Children!

While simply reading books is important, students should know how to dig deep into a work of literature. Veritas Press Literature Guides are designed to be used in the "grammar stage" of the classical education model, and will help your student(s) to increase comprehension on a literal and inferential level, build vocabulary, identify Biblical values in the literature being read, identify different genres of writing, and improve writing abilities.

In the Boxcar Children Veritas Press Comprehension Guide, students complete comprehension questions and activities such as making origami kids, making a stew, making a bear sock, and more. 62 homeschool/classroom reproducible pages, paperback. Line-listed answer key included. 2nd Grade.
