I was able to make my way through the following books:
- Bud, Not Buddy by Christopher Paul Curtis
- Maniac Magee by Jerry Spinelli
- Bridge to Terabithia by Katherine Paterson
- The Incorrigible Children of Ashton Place by Maryrose Wood
- Loser by Jerry Spinelli
- A Week in the Woods by Andrew Clements
I really enjoyed all of them. As I've done in the past, I opted to dog-ear pages with possible stopping points for kids. I then took those pages and put them into my OneNote notebook for novel study books. Instead of constantly needing to go back and re-read books I can use these questions to refresh my memory. My hope is that I can get kids to think more deeply about the author's message by using some stopping points with questions aimed at analyzing character and plot.
