This novel study is divided into two parts because the novel has two books in it. Each part of the novel study has 15 days of scheduled activities.
For 10 days, your student will read, take notes, complete paragraph-level writing activities, and study vocabulary. On day 11, your student will select the prompt for their five-paragraph essay and brainstorm details for it. On day 12, they will outline their essay. On day 13, they will write the first draft of their essay. On day 14, they will revise their paragraph. Then on day 15, they will do a final edit and produce a polished final draft.
After reading the book, you can watch the movie and have a book club!

About Little Women:
"Grown-up Meg, tomboyish Jo, timid Beth, and precocious Amy. The four March sisters couldn't be more different. But with their father away at war, and their mother working to support the family, they have to rely on one another. Whether they're putting on a play, forming a secret society, or celebrating Christmas, there's one thing they can't help wondering: Will Father return home safely?" - Amazon
