This resource is a great way to read A Long Walk to Water. Have students practice all core literacy standards! The text-dependent questions are broken down for easy scaffolding. Many chapters have graphic organizers to support student learners. There are numerous opportunities for discussion and writing built into these slides. 
 
This resource comes in Google Slides which are easily sharable and set up to be used as-is. I love this resource because it is easy to implement. These slides would be great for independent reading or as a class!
