I like to use the text to teach about point of view since the story explores the boy's and ant's perspective. Students can Ask questions about opinions in the text and use the mentor text to support their own opinions with reasons.

With newcomers at the high school level, I like to read a short novel called Seedfolks. Prior to reading, I like using this chart to help them visual the basic science behind the life cycle of a plant. We will also plant seeds and watch them grow as we read the novel and see how their plants grow. We dive into community, family, characterization, and more, but the visual of this cycle is helpful for them.

This is a great story that the students can connect to since they may eat different foods in their culture that others may not be familiar with. Students can write a narrative to talk about their favorite foods from their culture. After reading the book, they can watch a video about foods from around the world and talk about which foods they would ike to try and which foods they would not like to try.

Students read this text in conjunction with the novel Night. They get familiar with the social and emotional aspects of trauma from the Holocaust. It definitely has to be chunked for ELL learners with vocabulary front loaded.

This fable-type folktale is great for practicing close reading and inference. My students usually understand the broad arc of the story, but they struggle to fully explain what is meant by the title. There's a lot to explore and dig down on in this text--you can analyze character, theme, or plot. It's also a good candidate for having students rewrite the ending.
