About this title

Synopsis

This one-of-a-kind guide to running literature circles, based on E.L. Konigsburg’s From the Mixed Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler, shows you how to organize your students into discussion groups that work! Includes stimulating questions and writing prompts that motivate students to think and respond thoughtfully. As your students dive into lively discussions, they learn to identify themes, analyze vocabulary, recognize the author’s craft, and respond meaningfully to the text – all of which meet state and national language arts standards. For use with Grades 4-8.
