Well-written fiction provides a powerful teaching platform, not only to improve reading and comprehension, but to create better writers by providing the opportunity to study composition and literary techniques. The materials collected within this booklet are designed to help teachers get maximum mileage out of The Quill Pen, my middle grade fantasy novel. They include chapter-by-chapter discussion/study questions and vocabulary, all aligned with GLCE's and Common Core standards. Reproduction rights granted. Grades 5-8
