Love That Dog – Bundle

$34.00

Our Integrated Literature and Writing Discovery guides are designed to develop habits of thought and habits of work when used consistently over time. Manageable daily activities help students engage in thoughtful reading and meaningful writing. Stories come alive as students are invited to journey alongside the characters they are studying.

Level 1 bundles are suitable for students who can write at a 2nd to 3rd grade level. Choose 6 titles for a complete school year.

Description

I don’t want to because boys don’t write poetry. Girls do.

Meet Jack, who tells his story with a little help from some paper, a pencil, his teacher, and a dog named Sky.

Although this guide includes many of the same elements as the other Level 1 guides, such as vocabulary and comprehension, the format is unique. Each week, your student will be encouraged and guided to write poems in the style of each poet being introduced in the story.

Integrated Literature & Writing Discovery Guides

Level 1 study guides are recommended for a range of primary (grades 2 and 3) students who have acquired the foundational skills to independently read and respond to a simple piece of literature. Each guide is designed to be completed in five weeks, which allows students to comfortably work through six units in a typical school year.

Not sure what level to choose? View our placement guidelines here.

Each week for four weeks, students will:

  • Learn to take notes on characters, settings, and plot
  • Study vocabulary
  • Answer comprehension questions
  • Write a short personal response
  • Have opportunity to discuss topics related to the story

On the fifth week students are given a selection of hands-on projects to complete.
