Title: Plain Kate Author: Erin Bow Publisher: Arthur A. Levine Books Publication Date: September 2010 Hardcover: 336 pages Plain Kate lives in a world of superstitions and curses, where a song can heal a wound and a shadow can work deep magic. As the wood-carver’s daughter, Kate held a carving knife before a spoon, and her wooden talismans are so fine that some even call her “witch-blade”: a dangerous nickname in a country where witches are hunted and burned in the square. For Kate and her village have fallen on hard times. Kate’s father has died, leaving her alone in the world. And a mysterious fog now covers the countryside, ruining crops and spreading fear of hunger and sickness. The townspeople are looking for someone to blame, and their eyes have fallen on Kate. Enter Linay, a stranger with a proposition: In exchange for her shadow, he’ll give Kate the means to escape the angry town, and what’s more, he’ll grant her heart’s wish. It’s a chance for her to start over, to find a home, a family, a place to belong. But Kate soon realizes she can’t live shadowless forever — and that Linay’s designs are darker than she […]
Bink and Gollie, by Kate DiCamillo and Alison McGhee, have to be the most appealing characters in children's literature. While total opposites, they can teach our children so much about friendship. In the first book, Bink and Gollie, children read three short stories: Don't You Need a New Pair of Socks, P.S. I'll Be Back Soon, and Give a Fish a Home. With this novel study, your students will learn to answer concrete and inferential questions, summarize short stories, and write better paragraphs. They will be strengthening their creative writing skills as well as their vocabularies. This unit study can be used for guided reading, independent reading, or literature circles (I have used portions for homework as well). Bink and Gollie has a lexile level of 420 and is a Fountas and Pinnell level K. This unit study satisfies RL.1 and 2 CCSS and W.1 and 2 CCSS. I have used this unit with success from gifted grade one through grade four (for students reading with extra support). It is a versatile unit, as the stories are funny and appealing to children of all ages (my high school readers have been known to beg for Bink and Gollie read-alouds). Included in this novel study: * Comprehension questions for all three stories (concrete and inferential) *Vocabulary activities for all three stories * Character development activities * Summary activities * Creative writing activities * Paragraph writing practice * Narrative and expository writing pieces for each story. ** During this time when we are out of school and engaging with our students online and in a distance learning capacity, you may distribute my products to you students using the internet (but not in a way so that they are available to EVERYONE on the internet) Ex: Google Classroom is fine!**

And then the police and the media get involved and more of the outside world descends upon Ginger East with promises to “fix the neighborhood.” Suddenly, Nelo finds herself in the middle of a drama unfolding on a national scale.Worse yet, Kate is acting strange. She’s pushing Nelo away at the exact moment they need each other most.
