Instructional Ideas

  • Modify and use the activity as a book report form for any other book or story in your curriculum
  • Have pupils work together in literature circles to complete each section
  • Encourage learners to include evidence from the text in their short answers

Classroom Considerations

  • Even though the title of the worksheet refers to Elvira Woodruff's story, George Washington's Socks, the rest of the worksheet is not specific to the book, and could be used with any fictional work

Pros

  • Addresses a variety of reading comprehension skills
  • Requires youngsters to read critically and note important details

Cons

  • None
