Literary Analysis Task (LAT)

Today, we will start a fascinating project called a literary analysis task. This might sound fancy, but it's just a way for us to become detectives in the world of stories. We'll look closely at how the characters in our books interact and how these relationships can change the story's direction. Can anyone think of a time when a friend or someone you know changed your decision?"

Like in real life, characters in stories influence each other's choices; we'll pick a character from our book, 'Charlotte's W'Charlotte'sus, to show how Charlotte and Wilbur, or any other characters, talk to each other and what they do because of their friendship. Understanding this will help us see why the author made the story unfold in specific ways. So, let's put on olet'stective hats and get ready to dive into the world of Wilbur and his friends to uncover the secrets of their adventures. Are you ready to explore how friendships can save the day? 
Great enthusiasm, everyone! Let’s start our literary detective work and find out how friends in our story make choices that move the adventure forward. Click the online book, and let's begin our journey into the heart of 'Charlotte’s Web ch 1-3.
