What educators are saying

I purchased this for my gifted students to use while the rest of the class read a lower-level book. They enjoyed the book, but got a little tired of the questions. I don't think that reflects on this resource, though - it's awesome!
I used this with my book club in class. This resource allowed them to be responsible within the group for their discussion and holding everyone accountable.

Description

This resource is designed to be used during Reading Workshop and is to be used with

The Girl Who Drank the Moon by Kelly Barnhill. The pack has been designed in alignment with the 2014 National Curriculum of England’s reading objectives for Year 6.

ABOUT THE NOVEL: Every year, the people of the Protectorate leave a baby as an offering to the witch who lives in the forest. They hope this sacrifice will keep her from terrorizing their town. But the witch in the Forest, Xan, is kind. She shares her home with a wise Swamp Monster and a Perfectly Tiny Dragon. Xan rescues the children and delivers them to welcoming families on the other side of the forest, nourishing the babies with starlight on the journey.

One year, Xan accidentally feeds a baby moonlight instead of starlight, filling the ordinary child with extraordinary magic. Xan decides she must raise this girl, whom she calls Luna, as her own. As Luna’s thirteenth birthday approaches, her magic begins to emerge--with dangerous consequences. Meanwhile, a young man from the Protectorate is determined to free his people by killing the witch. Deadly birds with uncertain intentions flock nearby. A volcano, quiet for centuries, rumbles just beneath the earth’s surface. And the woman with the Tiger’s heart is on the prowl . . .

The Newbery Medal winner from the author of the highly acclaimed novel The Witch's Boy Novel Study.

ABOUT THE RESOURCE: This pack includes: Chapter Summaries, Comprehension Questions, Digging Deeper Opportunities (includes character studies and plot studies), Creative Writing Tasks, and Non-Fiction Tasks related to content of the novel (bog, dragon, geyser, nebula, botany, moon, swallow).

Resource is provided as a PDF but a digital copy of the pack is available for editing and sharing on Google Classroom and Seesaw available with download.
