From the Publisher:<\/em><\/p>\n

Ready Readers<\/em>\u00a0is based on the\u00a0Teaching the Classics\u00a0<\/em>approach to reading, which involves working with stories at or below a student’s reading level. \u00a0While the volumes in this series are appropriate to the reading level of a specific age group, they can be applied to grades at their reading level and up.<\/p>\n

Many parents and teachers asked for a set of example lessons to help them apply the\u00a0Teaching the Classics<\/em>\u00a0model in their classes.<\/p>\n

Ready Readers: Children’s Literature<\/em>\u00a0fills this need with complete discussion notes for 10 classic picture books.\u00a0\u00a0Each lesson includes a full set of Socratic discussion questions with comprehensive answers keyed to the text.\u00a0\u00a0Questions cover Conflict, Plot, Setting, Characters, Theme, Literary Devices, and Context.\u00a0In addition, a completed Story Chart graphically outlines the major structural and thematic elements of each story.<\/p>\n

This exciting resource is appropriate for use with students of all ages, depending on their needs:<\/p>\n

Reading Comprehension<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Ready Readers<\/em>\u00a0helps develop good reading comprehension in the very youngest students.\u00a0\u00a0It encourages them to ponder well-designed questions about structure, style, context, and theme in every story they read.<\/p>\n

Literary Analysis\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Though the books discussed here were written for children, they provide excellent examples of the structural elements common to all stories.\u00a0\u00a0They are therefore useful even in discussions with older students, who read at a higher level, but may be new to the techniques of literary analysis.<\/p>\n
