You know that Common Core State Standards require a focus on developing skills for close, analytical reading and synthesis of ideas. But exactly how do you translate that into daily classroom lessons? This series provides the answer, in the form of engaging, grade-specific activities that address every standard and consistently encourage higher-level thinking.

The books in this series are incredibly flexible, allowing you to focus on the standards while working with the children’s literature you and your students already know and love. Pat offers activities for the whole group, small groups, or individuals, as well as for highly effective centers. She includes management tips and assessment ideas, too!
