As students mature, learning to compare and contrast different stories is an amazing way to demonstrate deep understanding of a story. With second grade CCSS, students compared similar stories--like fractured fairy tales. Third graders are expected to apply this skill with two different stories altogether! Head over to I Teach Third to see how I used biographies by David Adler to teach compare & contrast! I've also give a few other suggested books to make your planning super easy!
Hope you love these amazing stories! I know you will love the rich vocabulary, and your kids will love learning about these amazing people!
