Jordan will be reading as many "little house" books as possible this year. I hope that she will read 1 book every 1-2 weeks.
This week she is reading Little House in the Highlands and I went ahead and made a question sheet of 3 questions for when she is done reading it. I lifted the questions from HARPER TEACHER.COM
I am starting with this book about Laura Ingals great grandmother, then we will read one about her grandmother, one about her mother, then we will go t "little house in the big woods" and go through those in order. I don't know if we will do the last two where Laura gets married and "the first 4 years, after she is married... It is probably too much information for my 9 year old daughter. Once we have read all of these, we will probably go back and read some of the short stories and more of the books preceeding the laura years.
The reason we are reading these books is because Jordan is studying the Romantic Period and these fall into that period. I would also like to find more books written for children about this time period... If anyone reading this has ideas of books a young girl might like, please drop me a note.
Thanks
