Description
This resource includes 11 individual mini-books (one for each element of critical thinking-) that can be used with ANY novel. The mini-books measure about 5 x 7 inches, contain 3-5 pages, and can be glued into an interactive notebook or lapbook. They can be used as a concluding project once students have finished a novel, or they can be completed based on smaller reading selections within a book (chapters, pages, etc.). Each of the 11 books comes with detailed teaching notes.
