KerriF Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 I'm looking for some resources that can teach me about the elements of fiction and some literary analysis. It doesn't need to be complex but detailed enough that I can learn it and then teach it. This is for 2nd grade so I know that we don't need to go very deep. Just be able to give defintions of the basics. (we will be doing a book club) Any suggestions? I have read Deconstructing Penguins and I liked it. I just feel I need a little bit more explanation so that I fully understand. Thanks for your help :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pster Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 I asked this a little bit ago..... (maybe search on "literary elements")...... but....How to Report on Books (Evan Moor) was recommended & also recently someone posted about a book at amazon called Teaching Literary Elements with Short Stories but when I looked there are a bunch of workbook activities you could probably use too. I kinda wanted to do the same thing and with my 3rd grader I'm going to use How to Report on Books. hth! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
