MEGA Bundle 2024 CBCA Shortlist books - Book of the Year - Plus Bonus Resource!

This is a HUGE 190+ page mega-bundle of novel studies based on all six books included on the 2024 CBCA shortlist for Picture Book of the Year.

It contains individual novel studies for the following six books:

* Bowerbird Blues by Aura Parker

* Every Night at Midnight by Peter Cheong

* If I Was a Horse by Sophie Blackall

* Paper-flower Girl by Margrete Lamond

* That Bird Has Arms! by Kate Temple and Jol Temple (My pick for the win!)

* Timeless by Kelly Canby

I have also included a BONUS resource bundle based on the classic book "Plague" by Jackie French. This book was included on the CBCA 2023 Notables list.

Every bundle is slightly different so please check out the individual listings for more specific information.

Each book study includes:

* Detailed comprehension guides, targeting both inferential and literal comprehension skills, plus specific comprehension skills like author purpose, predicting, summarising, cause and effect, sequencing, characterisation, figurative language and more. Most of the bundles contain differentiated comprehension guides for Stages 2 and 3 so you can 'scale up' or 'scale down' according to the unique needs within your class.

* Integrated writing activities - informative, persuasive and imaginative based on the books. There are 11 structured writing assessment booklets, covering a range of ages , from Stage One to Stage Three. Again, this allows for differentiation within your classroom. These are completely no-prep, and are linked to the text. They also include learning intentions, success criteria and planning guides.

* A full-colour set of 10 literature circle activities based on each book. These can be printed and laminated or simply placed on the class screen for students to select from. Literature Circle activities include a range of integrated skills, such as Creative and Practical Arts, history, research skills and more. This means you have seventy associated literacy tasks!

* All associated printables.

* a range of bonus resources, ranging from vocabulary boosters, word wall cards, informative slideshows and more!

The books in this bundle range in age suitability from Early Stage One to Stage 4.

This bundle of work is literally WEEKS of reading work for students. The programs are designed to be open-ended, so you can use them for a whole-class text, or small group work. Comprehension questions can be both verbal or printed for a written response from students.

I have many other literature- based resources in my store (many of them based on Australian literature) so feel free to check them out.
