using the novel study

The novel study can be used in four ways:
Independent reading at student created paced
Small group independent reading student created paced
Small group reading guided by the teacher
Whole class reading guided by the teacher.

Each novel study has the following key literacy elements:
Vocabulary:
The students will increase their vocabulary with worksheets that are designed to
have students rewrite the words, alphabetize the words, and unscramble the words.
Usage:
The students will better understand the meaning of the new vocabulary by seeing
the word used in sentences and identifying the correct spelling, creating a sentence and
illustrating the use of the word, and filling a cloze story.
Comprehension:
The questions come in two forms. The first is basic comprehension directly from
the story. This is your Who, What, Where, Why, How, When question.
The second form is analysis of information and events in the story. The student is
required to explain an answer, respond as if they were in the story, or state what they
think the character(s) should do.
Sequencing:
The student is required to take a list of events in the story and reorder them in a
sequence that correctly follows the story.
Creative Writing:
The student will take what they have learned from the story and apply it to a
creative writing piece. The directions for the creative writing piece are set up in a
bulleted format (common to most state standardized tests) to encourage students to
organize their writing better.
EACH OF THE TWO NOVEL STUDIES CAN BE PRINTED AND

STAPLED AS A PACKET USING THE INTRODUCTION AS THE
COVER PAGE.
