Children's Literature: Autobiography Revision
http://jessica-l-howard.blogspot.com/2008/04/autobiography-revision.html
Saturday, April 26, 2008. Phase, but two of my favorite authors were also Mary Downing Hahn and Lois Lowry. I couldn’t keep my hands off of their books! Particularly, my favorite books by these two were Stepping on the Cracks,. Series, and Sam. Series I remember in the third grade my teacher read to us All About Sam. And we couldn't get enough! I always wished that the library would carry more books by these authors so that I could read all of them. Books One of our favorite Little Critter. In elementary...

Children's Literature: Babymouse Craft Lesson
http://jessica-l-howard.blogspot.com/2008/04/babymouse-craft-lesson.html
Friday, April 18, 2008. This book deals with peer pressure, as well as bullying. It can be hard for students to find ways to fit in with others, especially if they are not good at something already. Just like Babymouse, I hated kickball and I always stood in the back as to avoid the ball! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). This is Terra and Bruno. This is Bruno and Gus Gus, the cat.

Children's Literature: Children's Literature, Briefly
http://jessica-l-howard.blogspot.com/2008/04/childrens-literature-briefly.html
Friday, April 18, 2008. Children's Literature, Briefly. Chapter 14. Informational Books. I think that it is important for children to at least be aware of informational books, so that they know these books are available to them now, or in the future, when doing research on certain topics. I think it is also important for kids to learn how The Dewey Decimal System works for when they need to locate these books. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). This is Terra and Bruno.

Children's Literature: Annotated Bibliography

Friday, April 25, 2008. This Next New Year. I Am NOT Going to Get Up Today. Who can't relate to this book? Everyone has a day (or maybe it's EVERY day! When they just don't want to get out of bed! This book goes through a whole series of events that could happen, even the police showing up at the house, and the character still. This is one of the cutest books I have ever read! I think that a lot of young readers would be able to relate to Clementine, especially since she is always misunderstood. This is ...

http://mrsmullinsbookblog.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
Saturday, April 26, 2008. By Sara Pennypacker: Uploaded to Amazon.com. Is a delightfully original romp through the wacky world of a sassy nine year old. I read it aloud to my 6 year old daughter and 4 year old son, and they both loved it. From the first page, we were all entertained by Clementine's interpretation of the world around her. Or that cutting and coloring her hair to match Margaret’s was exactly the wrong thing to do? Marla Frazee’s hilarious illustrations, kept us in stitches. They ...I will ...

Saturday, April 5, 2008. New York: Puffin Books, 1998. I left all the books for this course out on the coffee table right after I bought them. Almost immediately, my kids started flipping through them. They were enjoying themselves, so I took advantage of the opportunity to get some other things done. (I love it when I can let books be my babysitter.) A little while later, by 5 year old came into my room holding. This is the best book ever! Rene Saldana, Jr. April 8, 2008 at 7:35 PM.

Saturday, April 5, 2008. Holm, Jennifer and Matthew Holm. New York: Random House, 2005. Discussion/ How to Teach It:. The ability to multi-task, or perform two or more tasks at the same time, is important in American culture. Rare is the opportunity to devote all of one's attention to a solitary endeavor. Because. 1) paraphrase and summarize text to recall, inform and organize ideas, 2) use his/her own knowledge and experience to comprehend, 3) interpret text ideas through such varied means as journal wr...

Tuesday, January 29, 2008. Tunnel, Michael O. and James S. Jacobs. Children's Liteature, Briefly. 4e. Upper Saddle River, NJ: Prentice Hall, 2008. I loved what Madeleine L'Engle said on page 234 about the necessity of a reader to "create a book along with the writer." I think it speaks to the importance of developing students' schemas. The richer their background knowledge of pictures, art, sounds, words, etc.,the better equipped they will be to creatively engage in the reading process. How to Teach It:.
