Description
Here’s the book that started it all! It’s the late 1870’s, and young Laura and her family are living in a log house deep in the Wisconsin woods. It begins with stories of the long winter, kept cozy by Pa’s stories and fiddle music at the end of each day. When spring comes, Laura and her family enjoy a dance, a beautiful summer, and a bountiful harvest, their days filled with hard work and good times as always. This book spans about a year of Laura’s childhood.
Publisher's Description of Little House in the Big Woods by Laura Ingalls Wilder
Based on the real-life adventures of Laura Ingalls Wilder, Little House in the Big Woods is the first book in the award-winning Little House series, which has captivated generations of readers. This edition features the classic black-and-white artwork from Garth Williams.
Little House in the Big Woods takes place in 1871 and introduces us to four-year-old Laura, who lives in a log cabin on the edge of the Big Woods of Wisconsin. She shares the cabin with her Pa, her Ma, her sisters Mary and Carrie, and their lovable dog, Jack.
Pioneer life isn’t easy for the Ingalls family, since they must grow or catch all their own food as they get ready for the cold winter. But they make the best of every tough situation. They celebrate Christmas with homemade toys and treats, do their spring planting, bring in the harvest in the fall, and make their first trip into town. And every night, safe and warm in their little house, the sound of Pa’s fiddle lulls Laura and her sisters into sleep.
The nine books in the timeless Little House series tell the story of Laura’s real childhood as an American pioneer, and are cherished by readers of all generations. They offer a unique glimpse into life on the American frontier, and tell the heartwarming, unforgettable story of a loving family.
Category Description for Progeny Press Study Guides & Books
Searching for literary analysis with a strong Christian worldview? The search is over! Progeny Press Study Guides provide a grade-ranged and engaging book study for a trove of classic literature for elementary through high school (and beyond). The Progeny Press literature guides integrate Scripture study into every chapter of the selected novel. When Scripture is provided in the guide, the NIV translation is utilized. It is suggested to have your preferred Bible translation on hand to look up the many Scriptures referenced. Other suggested resources are a desktop dictionary and thesaurus, along with monitored internet access. There are many extension activities provided on Progeny Press’s Pinterest™ Boards.
New to literature study guides? They are an independent and flexible option for adding a literature component to your language arts. As your student reads a novel, the guide provides a framework, similar to a workbook. The structure of each guide stays consistent, from The Story About Ping all the way to the high school level with Macbeth. The guides are chapter ranged. This is important to this kind of literary analysis, as students are learning how each chapter works as a piece of the whole. Every lesson starts with vocabulary work and then moves to higher order/critical thinking questions. Think of it as moving from who, what, and where into the how and why. With Progeny Press, students are asked to draw comparisons between the literature they are reading and the Bible. Each guide includes:
- a concise synopsis of the book
- information about the book's author
- background information pertinent to the story
- suggestions for activities relating to the subject matter
- introduction of literary terms
- vocabulary exercises
- comprehension, analysis, and application questions
Progeny Press has many titles to choose from. The age groups overlap in places because, well, that is not an exact science, is it? For ease of access, we have taken the publisher’s lead and categorized the guides into:
- Lower Elementary (K-3)
- Upper Elementary (4-6)
- Middle School (6-8)
- High School (9-12)
This program allows parents to feel good about the content
their children will be reading and studying. Reading comprehension and literary
analysis are an important component of any ELA year! A typical number of novels
with guides is 4-6 a year (but you are not limited by this goal). Some novels
may take only a couple weeks to complete—while others may take up to 8-10
weeks.
Progeny Press’s Notes to the Instructor are helpful suggestions to get the most out of your literature guided studies. These are not hard and fast instructions, as literature guides are a flexible resource for family use. Students will answer directly in the guides, which are reproducible for single family or classroom use. From a parent’s point of view, literature guides are a timesaver! You set the rhythm that works for you and your student. Answers and suggested answers are in the back on perforated pages for easy removal.
