Lesson content and student activities for four novels often used with junior secondary students, a unit on Fantasy and Fairy Tales, and an introductory unit on Poetry.
Each novel unit provides a story synopsis, and learning activities related to the different parts of each novel – the orientation, the sequence of events that lead to the complication and the resolution. All of the Units include a range of motivating activities that encourage the students to explore themes that are of universal importance, such as how we grow and change, how we decide what and who are important in our lives, how we deal with grief and loss, and how stories and language can help us express our feelings and connect with other people who lived many years ago.
The material in these books is photocopiable for classroom use.
