An Alien in the Jam Factory - Task Maps

Dive into the fun and imaginative world of An Alien in the Jam Factory by Chrissie Sains (Accelerated Reader level 4.6) with these carefully crafted task maps. Designed to cover an entire guided reading block, these four task maps feature a wide variety of tasks that encourage higher-order thinking through comprehension, analysis, and creative responses.

The novel is divided into the following sections to support focused reading and discussion:

Task map 1: Chapters 1 to 3
Task map 2: Chapters 4 to 7
Task map 3: Chapters 8 to 12
Task map 4: Chapters 13 to end

Each task map is designed to be completed over the course of a week (or about 3 reading lessons), making this resource ideal for a month-long guided reading unit.
