    The Story of Ferdinand by Munro Leaf Questions for Socratic Discussion by Adam and Missy Andrews © 2006, The Center for Literary Education 3350 Beck Road Rice, WA 99167 (509) 738-6837 [email protected] www.centerforlit.com Contents Introduction 1 Questions about Context 3 Questions about Structure: Conflict and Plot 4 Questions about Structure: Setting 6 Questions about Structure: Characters 6 Questions about Structure: Theme 7 Story Chart 8 Introduction This teacher guide is intended to assist the teacher or parent in conducting meaningful discussions of literature in the classroom or home school. Questions and answers follow the pattern presented in Teaching the Classics , the Center for Literary Education’s two day literature seminar. Though the concepts underlying this approach to literary analysis are explained in detail in that seminar, the following brief summary presents the basic principles upon which this guide is based. The Teaching the Classics approach to literary analysis and interpretation is built around three unique ideas which, when combined, produce a powerful instrument for understanding and teaching literature: First: All works of fiction share the same basic elements — Context, Structure, and Style . A literature lesson that helps the student identify these elements in a story prepares him for meaningful discussion of the story’s themes. Context encompasses all of the details of time and place surrounding the writing of a story, including the personal life of the author as well as historical events that shaped the author’s world. Structure includes the essential building blocks that make up a story, and that all stories have in common: Conflict, Plot (which includes exposition , rising action , climax , denouement , and conclusion ), Setting, Characters and Theme.

  • Houghtful Ooks
    GRADES houghtful 2+ ooks Madison Moffatt A Teacher’s Guide to TheThe StoryStory ofof FerdinandFerdinand by Munro Leaf Social y Responsibilit Literac Series Editor Mary Abbott y Author Kirsten Lintott Note to parents and teachers The Thoughtful Books Series makes use of exemplary children’s literature to help young readers learn to read critically and to thoughtfully consider ethical matters. Critical thinkers rely on inquisitive attitudes, utilize thinking strategies, access background knowledge, understand thinking vocabulary, and apply relevant criteria when making thoughtful decisions. We refer to these attributes as intellectual tools. Each resource in this series features specific intellectual tools supporting literacy development and ethical deliberation. Teachers and parents can introduce the tools using the suggested activities in this resource, and then support learners in applying the tools in various situations overtime, until children use them independently, selectively, and naturally. Reading as thinking Reading is more than decoding words. It is the active process of constructing meaning. Good readers understand this process as engagement in critical thinking. They employ specific literacy competencies as they engage with text, create meaning from text, and extend their thinking beyond text. The activities in this booklet help develop the following literacy competencies: • Accessing background knowledge: Good readers draw on what they already know to establish a foun- dation for approaching new texts. In this case, the initial context of the story is bullfighting. Students discuss what they know about bullfighting in preparation for reading. • Reading with a purpose: Good readers are clear about why they are reading a text, either by bringing a specific objective to their reading or by anticipating the author’s objectives.

It must be a good book in its own right.” John Rowe Townsend, Written for Children: An Outline of Englsih-Language Children’s Literature The Story of Ferdinand: The Implication of a Peaceful Bull As the field of Children’s Literature continues to expand, there remain many conflicting views about how or if to analyze it given that Children’s Literature is not only meaningful to children, but also meaningful to adults who are its producers, but not its intended recipients.
