Description

This resource includes 11 individual mini-books (one for each element of critical thinking-) that can be used with ANY novel. The mini-books measure about 5 x 7 inches, contain 3-5 pages, and can be glued into an interactive notebook or lapbook. They can be used as a concluding project once students have finished a novel, or they can be completed based on smaller reading selections within a book (chapters, pages, etc.). Each of the 11 books comes with detailed teaching notes.
 
The topics/concepts that are covered are as follows:
  • Language of the Discipline: descriptive words, word connotation, literary devices
  • Details: character and setting analysis, sensory description
  • Patterns: exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, resolution
  • Rules: character relations, theme, rules within a story
  • Trends: character types, compare and contrast with nonfiction, influence of setting
  • Unanswered Questions: author’s purpose, examples of ambiguity, human nature
  • Ethics: plot dilemma, ethical elements, controversy and debate
  • Big Idea: summarization, theme, literary archetypes, literary motif
  • Relate Over Time: changes in character and setting, historical relevance, future implications
  • Multiple Perspectives: characterization, protagonist vs. antagonist, point of view
  • Across Disciplines: multidisciplinary connections, illustration, research
Two versions–with and without icons–are now included!!
