Making Connections
4. An important element of literary analysis is recognizing that the events and conflicts in a text are similar to events in other texts and to those in real life. Making connections between texts and between texts and life helps you not only understand the text, but also to understand life lessons it may teach. Make connections between Walk Two Moons, other texts, yourself, and the world. Record your ideas in the graphic organizer.

Type of Connection
Explain Connection
Text to Same Text: Make a connection to another event in the same novel.
Text to Different Text: Make a connection to an event in a different novel or text.
Text to Self: Make a connection to an event in your own life.
Text to World: Make a connection to an event in history or society.
5. Making text connections also involves reflecting on what has happened in the book up to this point and predicting what will happen next. Use the graphic organizer below to connect the past to the future in Walk Two Moons.
