Literature Discussion Guide: Hatchet

Description

By reading a book together and finding the executive functioning skills at work, we can help our kids to notice the skills for themselves in other situations

Often times, its easier to critique the lives of fictional characters than ourselves. Then, when they can recognize what Executive Functioning is, they can then see it and apply it to their own lives as well.

Use the included reading plan and discussion questions as you read the Hatchet by Gary Paulsen, with your teen.

The questions in this guide are meant to encourage your teen to observe the Executive Functioning Skills at work throughout the story.
