As a mom and teacher, I know how valuable it is to have meaningful lessons available for use in conjunction with reading books to promote challenging and thoughtful reflection of the story.  So, I have created myself a lesson guide and response packet that accomplishes those learning goals for readers of Molly Bell and the Wishing Well.  The activities are aligned with ELA Common Core Standards for 3rd-5th Graders.  Suggested use for best implementation is included in the first page, with the individual chapter response sheets following.  This resource is absolutely FREE, so please feel welcome to share with fellow teachers and/or parents!  Click below to be linked to a copy:
