"Shifting your literature instruction to meet the Common Core can be tricky. The standards are specific about how students should analyze characters, themes, point of view, and more. In this new book, Lisa Morris makes it easy by taking you through the standards and offering practical strategies, tools, and mentor texts for grades 3-5. She shows you how to combine the standards into effective units of study so that you can teach with depth rather than worry about coverage. These units can be seamlessly incorporated into your curriculum and used with reading and writing workshops. The book also features reading graphic organizers that can be photocopied for classroom use or downloaded from our website as printable eResources"--
