Essential Questions
Literary Elements help us understand a story.
How can literature communicate ideas about one’s culture?
Traditional Literature is read for enjoyment and also allows us to better
understand cultures from around the world.
What life lessons can we learn from fictional stories?
How do characters affect other characters in a story and the story plot?
We can learn moral lessons through fables, legends, myths, folktales, fairytales,
and other fictional stories.
In what ways can we learn about solving our problems in the real world by
reading books?
Similar stories can be found throughout different cultures.
When do readers make text-to-text connections?
Word Choice and organization play an important part in helping a reader
visualize a story.

Bundle Performance Task(s)
The local librarian noticed that many students who visit the library don’t read a variety of fiction books (traditional literature, realistic fiction, fantasy). He/she is
asking for your help. He/she would like individuals and/or groups of students to create posters that show text-to-text connections between two books read recently.
He/she is asking that these posters be hung for others to view. The librarian is hoping others will be excited to search for connections in a variety of literature just
like the individuals who made the posters.
These posters should compare and contrast the themes/morals, character traits/motivations/feelings, settings, and plots of two similar fictional stories (e.g.,
stories by the same author about the same or similar characters, similar folktales that represent two different cultural perspectives). The librarian supplied example
planning sheets, if needed, to help you gather necessary information for your poster.
As an extension, students can read traditional literature stories from different cultures. Students could post morals/themes next to the country each story
represented. By doing this, students could see that people from around the world have a love for and learn similar lessons from literature. This extension could be
ongoing the remainder of the year.
