Suppose The Wolf Were An Octopus: Guides to Creative Questioning Now revised and expanded to four volumes, this series has become an essential guide and resource for teachers of literature Grades K-7 One of the great contributions to the discipline of gifted education and to the education of all children Designed to develop critical and creative thinking through elementary-grade literature Based on Bloom’s Taxonomy with multiple questions for each level A long-time favorite in gifted education and used widely in the regular classroom. Covers fiction and non-fiction, around 50 stories in each volume, with a brief synopsis before the questions. Each book explores the rationale for creative questioning in the teaching of literature and overviews Bloom's Taxonomy. Based on the Taxonomy's six levels: Knowledge, Comprehension, Application, Analysis, Synthesis, and Evaluation, there are multiple questions for each level. The series is designed to: - develop critical and creative thinking through literature
- function as the nucleus of a busy teacher's literary resource and literature lesson plan
- appeal to a variety of different interests through fiction and non-fiction
- be used as a question provider for students' book reports
The series provides literature lesson previews for teachers who: - wish to teach thematically and are seeking appropriate materials
- might not be familiar with a literary work and find reassurance through the questions that it is indeed a piece to be included in class study, or as required reading, or on a supplementary reading list for comparative literature purposes
- wish to study more deeply a genre, historical period or writing convention
Also available from Royal Fireworks and an invaluable aid to this series: Bloom's Taxonomy Poster. There is 50% off the price of the Royal Fireworks novels that are used in the books above K-2. See the 'Wolf Packages' below.
