Book Plan

Little Women Book Plan (Bigs, 7-8, 2 Weeks)

Book: Little Women by Louisa May Alcott

Four sisters, one hard year and a question readers have argued about since 1868: what does it really mean to grow up?

This two-week plan walks your child or students through Part One of Louisa May Alcott's Little Women, two or three chapters a day. Each day has a reading, three original discussion questions and one printable page. Students label an 1860s writer's desk and try a dip pen, build a box zither to test the math of Beth's piano, write their own Pickwick Portfolio newspaper, compare the real Louisa with Jo, write Beth's letter to Washington, learn why scarlet fever was feared before antibiotics, map the March girls' Pilgrim's Progress, and finish with an evidence-based argument essay.

Perfect for grades 7 to 8 classrooms, homeschool families and book clubs.
