Memoria Press: Little House in the Big Woods Student Guide

Little House in the Big Woods by Laura Ingalls Wilder remains an all-time American classic about life on the frontier. The first book in the beloved Little House series begins in 1871 in a log cabin on the edge of the Big Woods of Wisconsin. Four year old Laura, her Pa, her Ma, her sisters Mary and Carrie, and their dog, Jack all live happily together in the little house. Life as a pioneer is not always easy, especially when preparing for the long Wisconsin winter. But there is also joy and fun as Laura and her family celebrate Christmas, plant crops every spring, harvest in the autumn, and make trips into town. This heartwarming story will introduce students to America's frontier history through the eyes of a young girl growing up in the safe, warm, and love-filled little house. Our Little House in the Big Woods Student Guide trains students to become active readers by providing in-depth word studies that help students build vocabulary as well as comprehension questions to teach students to identify important concepts and compose clear, concise answers to questions. The Little House in the Big Woods Student Guide consists of lessons for the 13 chapters of Little House in the Big Woods, each containing spelling words, vocabulary work, comprehension questions, and questions for discussion. The answers can be found in the Little House in the Big Woods Teacher Guide.
