Susan in TX Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 I am planning for 7th grade and I need something that covers Literary analysis. I've used Lightning Lit and I don't want to use it again. I also want something that is more thorough. So far my plan is to use The Art of Poetry, Figuratively Speaking, and several Portals to Literature guides. Is this enough? Too much? Is there another curricula out there that will cover this stuff? Susan in TX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan in TX Posted June 10, 2010 Author Share Posted June 10, 2010 I have looked at it but it is expensive and I just can't get enough info about it to be sure I will like it. I tend to not like textbooks. Susan in TX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt_Uhura Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 (edited) There is a poster here....gosh darn I can't recall her username, but in Lit Analysis threads, she usually posts all of the lit analysis programs by category and a bit about them. Perhaps if you search on literature analysis you will bring up one of her posts. If I can recall her username, I'll post it. I know I've seen her post it recently at the high school board. I think it's Lori D. Edited June 10, 2010 by Capt_Uhura Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wy_kid_wrangler04 Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 Have you looked into Stobaughs Skills for Literary Analysis? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RENEEinVA Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 I highly recommend Windows to the World (IEW website). It is completely doable in middle school. I'm actually using it for my 7th & 9th graders now and it is working beautifully. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RENEEinVA Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Teaching the Classics: A Socratic Method for Literary Education by Adam & Missy Andrews I'll add on that we also use TtC (especially the chart) with Windows to the World. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
