Thank you for your suggestions. Because so many of you have indicated that Deltora
Quest is
available in the US, I will refer to this in the article. Then, because of the
number if requests,
I will write up what I actually did for the "Deltora Quest Quest" in my column for
Teacher
Librarian, so you can use it as a model or as itself.
http://www.teacherlibrarian.com/ It will be
either April 06 or Jun 06.
In the meantime, suggestions for series that might lend themselves to a series of
activities which
requires the students to read and re-read to really engage with the text; that the
problem to solve
demands higher-order thinking and needs more than one session to complete were
The Dark is Rising - Susan Cooper
A Series of Unfortunate Events - Lemony Snicket
The Seventh Tower - Garth Nix
Guardians of Ga'hoole - Katherine Lasky
Spiderwick Chronicles
