Absolutely Incredible! Way more than I could use, but this unit was so comprehensive and detailed. If I could rate this more than 5 stars, I would! Thank you!
If you are planning a novel study for The Book Thief, look no further. This bundle has EVERYTHING! I use the close reading activities to teach my students active reading techniques. The historical background readings were also great. I have really enjoyed using these resources and will definitely be using them again in the future.
My student’s skills have grown from the activities within this resource. I really get the ability to demonstrate and focus on the skill while they read the novel. The students love the activities. Thank you!
