For teachers
We know that the Common Core State Standards are encouraging you to reevaluate the books that you assign to your students. To help you decide which books are right for your classroom, each free ebook in this series contains a Common Core–aligned teaching guide and a sample chapter.
This free teaching guide for The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho is designed to help you put the new Common Core State Standards into practice.
Every few decades a book is published that changes the lives of its readers forever. The Alchemist is such a book. With over a million and a half copies sold around the world, The Alchemist has already established itself as a modern classic, universally admired. Paulo Coelho's charming fable will enchant and inspire students for generations to come.
The Alchemist is the magical story of Santiago, an Andalusian shepherd boy who yearns to travel in search of a worldly treasure as extravagant as any ever found. From his home in Spain he journeys to the markets of Tangiers and across the Egyptian desert to a fateful encounter with The Alchemist.
The story of the treasures Santiago finds along the way teaches us, as only a few stories have done, about the essential wisdom of listening to our hearts, learning to read the omens strewn along life's path, and, above all, following our dreams.

Title: Diving Deeper
Review: If you thought The Alchemist made think, the Teacher's Guide will really open up your mind. The Alchemist is by far in the top 5 best books I have ever read. It's a keeper and should be on everyone's bookshelf at home. However the Teacher's Guide will lead you into a deeper dive of what The Alchemist means for you and how you choose your path and make decisions beyond the basic "yes" & "no" questions.

Review: The book is okay. I didn't realize it was a teacher's guide. I became interested from listening to Krista Tippett "On Being" public radio show...when she interviewed the author who I thought was very interesting.

Review: Nonostante la guida offra spunti per integrare L'Alchimista nell'insegnamento conforme al Common Core, avrei apprezzato una gamma più diversificata di strategie didattiche. Il capitolo campione offre un'anteprima della narrativa incantevole, ma la sua brevità mi ha lasciata desiderosa di un'analisi più approfondita.Nonostante le sue lacune, questa guida rappresenta un buon punto di partenza per gli insegnanti desiderosi di coinvolgere gli studenti nell'eterna storia di Paulo Coelho. Potrebbe non esplorare approfonditamente gli approcci pedagogici, ma certamente aiuta a coltivare l'amore per la letteratura e la ricerca dei sogni.
