Literature & Writing Discovery Guide: From the Mixed-up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler

Our Integrated Literature & Writing guides inspire students to READ clearly, WRITE authentically, and THINK deeply. Whether in a classroom, homeschool, book club, or independent study setting, Blackbird & Company materials are designed to be flexible and easily tailored to the needs of each student and teacher. When it comes to learning language arts, students are motivated to write when they are writing their own IDEAS. As we provide opportunities for them to catalog these ideas over time, literacy skills soar! Each week, this core English Language Arts (ELA) offering follows a similar format, with ample room for students to catalog their observations and bring shape to their ideas through various writing activities. Students will read and journal on character development, setting, and plot. They will explore rich vocabulary unique to the story and will trace the plot chronologically as they answer comprehension questions with complete sentences. In Level 1, for 3rd grade, students are supported with a simple scaffolding as they craft their response to a prompt connected to the week’s reading. Students will learn to move from a rough draft to a final, polished work. Each week culminates with a robust discussion. Our Integrated Literature & Writing Discovery guides include the following: Assignment Checklist Character, Setting and Plot Vocabulary Observation Questions Reflective/Responsive Writing Discussion Questions Culminating Projects Answer Key This ELA Integrated Literature & Writing Discovery guide is structured to be completed in 5 weeks. We recommend 3rd grade students complete 6 guides in a school year. Required book (not included): From the Mixed-up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler, by E.L. Konigsburg READ WELL. WRITE WELL. THINK WELL. At the core of every child’s being is some form of genius. We foster genius as we inspire children to write their ideas. Develop habits of thought and habits of work through consistent use of our curriculum over time. With Blackbird & Company, your students will joyfully learn to share their thoughts, stories, and ideas through the written word. Whether studying great literature, crafting original sentences, paragraphs, or essays, exploring larger than life people, or researching the wide world of science, students will steadily acquire the skills that every person needs in order to thrive — the ability to think creatively and logically, and to communicate with heart and mind.
