Happy Children's Book Week! From November 9 to 15, readers everywhere celebrate the joy of a good story, and Martin is ready to join in.
For teachers and homeschool families, the big news is that the Lesson Plans for Martin's Adventures - 24 Days 'till Christmas: A Dragon's Tale of Holiday Tradition and Origins are now unlocked. There is a plan for each of the 25 days, from the November 30 preface through December 24, with skills and discussion ideas for the classroom. Join the Guild as an Educator or Homeschool member to access them.
The book is complemented by activity and quest pages that bring the Read · Quest · Explore spirit of Martin's Adventures to life. Find them in the online Quest Tracker, or teachers can download the PDF free here. They are separate from the Lesson Plans.
All week long we have something for readers of every age:
Nov 10: A Thanksgiving Quest Path, a free printable to download.
Nov 11: A family reading quest. Find a cozy reading spot, snap a photo and share it in the Quest Tracker.
Planning to give the book for the start of Advent? Order by November 20 so it arrives in time.
Happy reading,
Loreen and Martin
