What educators are saying

Very nicely aligned novel study workbook. Students enjoyed this workbook and it was easy to use in the classroom and in small groups.
My students loved using this resource. It was well thought out, organized, and engaging. Perfect for my 6th graders.

Description

This guide has everything you need for a small group literature circle/book club study of the memoir Ugly, by Robert Hoge. For each group of chapters (usually 2), students complete vocabulary work, an input-output chart to record their thoughts, and critical thinking comprehension questions. Two pages at the end are included for students to finalize their thoughts about their reading: an open mind diagram and a point of view activity. I have my students complete work as they read, then come together and share their thoughts (and add to their answers)--groups run themselves and I check in regularly!

Comprehension questions focus on making inferences, supporting answers with text evidence, making text-to-self connections, and evaluating characters' choices--questions that lead to deeper critical thinking about the text!

25 pages are for student use; the remaining are the answer key with suggested answers.
