Literature Connections

Since you are a busy teacher, here's a place that lists resources aligned to the core literature for your grades. We are just beginning and have a long way to go, but there are some great resources here for you. Check out the themes, questions, websites, resources, extensions, activities, and more for each book you teach or read. Eventually this list will be searchable by theme, keywords, author, title. Keep checking back in to see the list grow.
