Island of the Blue Dolphins Study Guide

For my book clubs, I have created what I call a "Book About A Book" for each book I use to serve as a reading guide and discussion guide. Each guide divides the novel into sections meant to be read over a week and includes an active reading section to be completed as the student reads (a graphic organizer and sometimes an additional activity), vocabulary, and 5-6 literary analysis/comprehension questions to be completed after reading that section. There is also a section at the beginning to record characters and descriptions and follow up writing prompts

For Island of the Blue Dolphins, this file includes:

Three sections of active reading graphic organizers, vocabulary, and comprehension questions
Cover page for booklet
