The Telemachos Guided Reading Editions of classic novels are designed to encourage educators to teach once again from the unabridged literary treasury of Western Civilization. Each edition provides students-unaccustomed to the sentence structure and vocabulary of novels written over a century ago-a path, alongside the story itself, of directed questions, which light their way toward understanding the novel's concrete details of plot, character, conflict, and imagery, details essential for all young readers to grasp when they enter, for the first time, into the world created by Charles Dickens.
Each Telemachos Guided Reading Edition
- establishes close-reading skills that become, over time, customary during the act of reading;
- outlines a process by which educators help students find an appropriate analytical voice for crafting written arguments based upon the evidence the story itself provides and the related associations arising therein;
- offers sample pages illustrating how a reader can personally annotate a text for evidence and associations in preparation for constructing an essay;
- includes footnotes for both historical and literary context and, in most cases, a glossary of vocabulary from the novel.
