This one-year subscription gives you access to all teacher materials for Junior Great Books® Series 6 through the new and improved Junior Great Books Digital Classroom.
Junior Great Books Series 6 contains 20 outstanding works of literature—including fiction, nonfiction, and poetry—that sustain interpretive reading and discussion. Among the selections are beloved classics by well-known authors, as well as contemporary writing by new voices that you won’t find in any other anthology.
The Teacher's Edition includes:
- Step-by-step instructions for each activity with point-of-need teacher support
- Student learning spectrums and differentiation strategies for each activity to help with formative assessment
- A unit overview for each selection with suggested note-taking options and discussion questions
In Junior Great Books Digital Classroom, teachers can:
- Receive notes submitted by students, enabling them to track questions students pose as they read. This private communication enables one-on-one support and helps ensure comprehension of the text.
- Play audio of the selections
- See glossary definitions, which appear alongside the text, of potentially unfamiliar words
- View student analytics on student progress and time spent within the platform
- Work with both digital texts and print books seamlessly because both formats match page-by-page
Note: Teacher-resource pages and student handouts, including comprehension tests, reflection forms, and discussion planners, may be printed.
