This is a novel study to go along with Kate DiCamillo’s Novel Because of Winn-Dixie. This product includes completed lesson plans for each chapter, a Google Slide Show for each chapter, Doodle Notes for each chapter, and an End of chapter activity for each chapter. Students will practice analyzing characters and character traits, central idea, supporting details, creating summaries, Problem and Solution, Cause and Effect, Comparing and Contrasting, and building discussion skills!

A large part of this novel study is discussion-based. I have included a slide on the slideshow where you will put your classroom expectations for discussions. There are also times for the introduction to the chapter, you will start with a whole group discussion. (I would maybe recommend turn and talks if you use groups in your classroom)

The Lesson Plans and Google Slides are editable for you. You can edit them on Google Slides and/or Microsoft PowerPoint (I would recommend Google Slides because that is the app that it was created with). **The standards are not included in the lesson plans due to each state having their own standards**

I hope you enjoy it. Please rate and review!
