Description
Where
the adventure all begins—guided with The Magician’s Nephew Study Guide by
Progeny Press, your student (and maybe the whole family) will enjoy
falling into the world of Narnia. Each section is presented in 2–3-chapter
chunks that start with vocabulary work and lead into comprehension and
scriptural connection questions. As this novel details the beginning of a world,
it is closely tied to the creation story in scripture. Literary skills include characterization,
mood, story elements, dialect, and more. A special Note of
Magic at the beginning discusses the theme of magic within this book series
from a Christian perspective. Prereading Activities provide context to what you
will read. The After-You-Read Activities are suggested extension work to make
connections to what you just read. A catered list of age-appropriate Further
Reading books is also provided. Answers are in the back on perforated pages for
easy removal. 61 pages, softcover. ~Rebecca
Publisher's Description of The Magician's Nephew Study Guide | Progeny Press
When Polly Plummer meets Digory Kirke, he is very unhappy. His father is away in India, and he and his mother, who is very ill, have moved to London to live with an aunt and uncle. Digory is convinced that his Uncle Andrew is either mad, or has a very important secret. Though he's been warned to stay away from Uncle Andrew's study, he's heard strange noises coming from the room late at night.
Digory and Polly become friends, and because of the cold, wet summer days, they are forced to play indoors. While exploring a tunnel that connects their houses, the children accidentally find themselves in Uncle Andrew's study, and Uncle Andrew seems far too delighted to see the children. Uncle Andrew's experiment will send the children to strange other worlds, but an encounter with the sinister Queen Jadis brings evil to the land of Narnia on the day of its creation. Digory, meanwhile, may have a chance to heal his mother, but will he pass the test?

Category Description for Middle School Grades 6-8
The Middle School guides is our largest offering of titles with Progeny Press. With over 40 titles to choose from, there are numerous books that will likely be suitable for your student. All presented from a Christian worldview, each guide is filled with comprehension questions, vocabulary building, and scriptural connections and application. Pages can be copied for family and individual classroom use. Many of the classics are found in this collection and would provide a great opportunity (or incentive) for your students to read the book and watch the movie! The recommended target goal is for students to read 4-6 guides during the school year. Answers are in the back and can be easily removed. Each guide includes Notes to the Instructor, mini author biographies, and background information. You may be working with a range of students all from one guide, and that’s okay! Each student will do what they are developmentally capable of accomplishing. It is easy to read just for fun, yet adding a literature guide helps to provide a guided reading experience promoting deeper thought and critical thinking. ~Rebecca
