Literature Based Learning
Great Multi-Cultural
Literature Units from every genre in 20
Award Winning Books!
When
you see yawns and fiddling in your classroom, you'll know it's
time to infuse some real fun and challenge into your day. Literature-Based
Learning contains the lesson plans and worksheets that you will
need to cause an enthusiasm-explosion in you day!
Units
in Literature-Based Learning will replace dumbed-down
lessons and literature with exciting full-length novels and fascinating
picture books with well-developed characters and plots.
In
Literature-Based Learning, your kids will experience
creative lessons based on ten different stories which grew out
the same prompt that was sent to famous authors in Birthday
Surprises! They will work together to try to solve the mystery
in the science fiction thriller, Shape
Changer. They will compare their lives with the life of a
boy who lived in 1626...by comparing journals! Your students will
howl with laughter at Swamp
Angel's tall tale and will work together to learn more about
the genre as well as literary devices that make it fun to read.
Their friend will die in a bike accident in Mick
Harte was Here, but together, they will find courage and healing
as they get to know his sister. Pink
and Say will introduce your children to the Civil War and
will inspire them to research, compare, and report as they work
through the unit that helps them extend their learning. In their
fist encounter with concepts from King Arthur and the Knights
of the Round Table, the unit on Merlin
and the Dragons will inspire them to learn more about the
King Arthur and Middle Ages. In the Beast
Feast unit, kids will delight in animal poetry and will be
excited about putting poetic literary devices to work in their
own poems.
