This 28 page book study guide includes vocabulary words for each chapter, things to look up and learn more about, activities to make the book come alive, and questions that make the book more meaningful.
You will love acting out scenes in the book, starting nature journals, putting on a fair, making the foods Calpurnia ate, and so much more! Doing things people in books do help students remember the book more than just reading it, and is a terrific bonding experience. Everyone will love it!
Originally designed for homeschoolers but easy to do in a school setting as well. Your students will love reading this book, knowing there are fun activities to do each day instead of boring worksheets. Have students bring their school picture for a carte de visite like in chapter 7. Watch caterpillars turn into butterflies or moths. Set up a candy store with fake pennies. Each chapter has so much you can do to bring it to life and make it a book to remember!
You probably already know that “The Evolution of Calpurnia Tate” by Jacqueline Kelly is a fantastic book, rich with challenging vocabulary words, historical events and references, and scientific people, plants, and animals. This novel study guide and the accompanying google slide presentation will help students learn what those words mean, and teach them about the historical events, people, plants and animals. These both are invaluable resources in your reading of this wonderful historical fiction book.
BONUS: I’ve just added 2 slides of photos of my children doing some of the activities so you can get an idea of what they look like and how fun/memorable they are!
