TEACHING LITERATURE http://cms.education.gov.il/educationcms/units/mazkirut_pedagogit/english/whatsnew/
Literature Bagrut Exam In some questions there will be a choice and students will not be required
to answer the justification question. Learning HOTS will enable your students to better answer other questions
both on the literature module and on the other Bagrut modules. Students who have not been taught how to answer the justification
question have not choice but to answer the alternative question. Teachers preparing their students for the exam do not have to include the
teaching of HOTS for the first three years, even though it is recommended.
The process of teaching literary texts remains the same; the Key Components for teaching a literary text have not changed.
