Charlotte's Web - Differentiated Novel Study
Overview
Description
‘Charlotte’s Web’ is a classic children’s novel by American author E.B. White. This novel study for students with high potential was created using Bloom’s Revised Taxonomy, the Freya model for vocabulary development and the Williams model of curriculum differentiation.
Two levels of differentiation have been provided: ‘core’ and ‘extension’. If you are unsure of how to group students, we would recommend that you have students complete a comprehension pretest. Students who demonstrate the ability to infer deep meaning from reading a text should be provided with extension work.
There are questions for chapters as well as activities for students to complete once they’ve finished the novel. These sheets are designed to be glued into exercise books, or you can add blank lined pages to turn the sheets into a booklet for students.
