Welcome to Crash Course Kids Literature! Over the next 6 episodes, Detective Abby will take us on a journey through the amazing details and hidden meanings of stories.

Course Description:

Stories are powerful: they help us make sense of the world, communicate lessons, and connect across cultures. In Crash Course Kids Literature, we’ll explore a variety of stories, genres, and formats, from historical fiction to contemporary fiction to sci-fi, from poetry to prose to fairy tales. In 6 episodes geared toward 3rd- to 5th-grade students, we’ll highlight each story’s key elements, like character and setting, and break down its structure into easy-to-digest chunks. And we’ll also dive into nonfiction, applying critical thinking to new information. Intended for classroom use either as a primer or follow-up to assigned reading, this series will help students make connections that strengthen reading comprehension and inform their perspectives. It will cover a range of common core standards, supporting educators in meeting their goals, and will help foster a love of reading and storytelling that students can carry with them outside of the classroom.
