A Wolf Called Wander Novel - Book Study

A hands-on, literary adventure that follows Swift's wild journey of survival, resilience, and discovery.

This immersive study brings Rosanne Parry’s A Wolf Called Wander to life through science, storytelling, and exploration. Designed for grades 3–6 (with flexible extensions for grades 7–8), students will follow Swift’s transformation from lost pup to confident pack leader—while diving into science experiments, character studies, and real-world wolf behavior.

This is a downloadable unit study. The novel must be purchased separately.

Students will:

• Explore scent through hands-on investigations
• Learn how wolves heal in the wild with a blood clot STEM challenge
• Compare real wolves to wolves in fables like Little Red Riding Hood and The Boy Who Cried Wolf
• Track migration paths and build models of safe shelters
• Examine loyalty, leadership, and resilience in both literature and science
• Study the real wolf (OR-7) who inspired the story

With every chapter, readers dive into new activities designed to connect literature, science, and nature. Students will reflect in their own Wolf Journal, build shelters, conduct science experiments, and uncover how wolves live, learn, and survive.

This isn’t just a book report—it’s an experience.

🌲 Explore bite force, scent tracking, and animal instincts.

📖 Investigate character development, trust, and symbolism.

🧪 Bring science into your homeschool or classroom in a wild, unforgettable way.
