DEAR TEACHER,
The enclosed Literature Study was designed by teachers with you and your students in mind. We believe it is the most comprehensive and practical LiteratureStudy you will ever use. We feel it’s important to review the special features of thisliterature study and help to familiarize you with it.
1. The Literature Study has been divided into five parts. The Introduction will give students background information important to the story. Part I will focus on chapters 1-4, Part II will focus on chapters 5-10, Part III will deal with chapter 11-14 and Part IV will focus on chapters 15-22.
2. Parts I, II, III, and IV begin with “Let’s Talk About It” discussion questions. These questions deal with issues raised in the chapters. A suggestion for the use of these questions is to have students first answer them independently, then get together with a partner or small group to share their thoughts and feelings. Finally, if time permits, selected students could share with the whole class.
3. Students will complete Vocabulary Cards for each chapter, complete a context clues activity and take quiz at the end of each of the four parts over those vocabulary words. As teachers, we know the frustration of having students look up words in the dictionary, only to find multiple meanings. If a child doesn’t know the meaning of the word, it’s unfair to expect him or her to be able to pick out and write down the correct definition for the word as it is used in the context of the passage in the book. Therefore, we have created a Glossary of words with their definitions. This Glossary is located on pages 84-87. We
suggest that you make copies for each student. The vocabulary quizzes and the context clues activities will utilize these definitions. You might want to copy the Vocabulary Cards onto tag board and encourage students to bring in a
box for storing the cards on their desks.
4. Comprehension questions will be answered after students have read each chapter. We have designed two formats for you to use at your own discretion: short answer and multiple choice. As a suggestion, you might try having students complete the short answer questions after reading each chapter, and then use the multiple choice questions as a quiz the next day. If students have been diligent to read the chapters and answer the short answer questions correctly, they will be successful on the multiple choice quizzes.
5. Answers to all of the activities can be found on pages 88-94.
6. Bookmarks and a certificate for successfully completing the Literature Study can be found on pages 82-83.

Farming began thousands of years ago when people started to grow plantsand tend animals. Before that, people hunted, fished, and gathered food. Earlyfarmers did all of the work by hand. They used a digging stick to scratch at thesoil and dig holes in which they dropped seeds. Years later, farmers improvedtheir methods by making tools like plows that turned the soil over instead of justscratching at it, and training their animals (usually oxen) to pull the plows.
FAMILY FARMSThe first settlers who came to North America started farms that required
entire families to be involved. In the early 1900s, the average size farm was about 160acres. Many different crops were planted, animals were raised, and everyone inthe family had to lend a hand. The men and boys plowed the fields, sowed theseeds, worked in the stables, cut wood for fuel, built and mended fences, andbutchered livestock.
The women and girls kept the house, milked the cows, fed the calves, madebutter, bread, cheese, and soap, and washed the clothes by hand. They even spun theirown thread, made dyes, and dyed the clothes. Even the youngest children wereexpected to help on the farm. They fed the pigs and the chickens, gathered eggs, andcollected goose feathers to make pillows and blankets. When it was time to harvest thecrops the entire family could be found in the fields.
TODAY’S FARMSToday farms are larger and farmers generally raise only one or two
crops. More than 90% of all the world’s food still comes from farming and ranching.The United States, with its fertile soil and good growing conditions, produces morefood than it needs, so it is the major exporter of farm products.
