| Summary | Annotation Content area literacy. Reading across the curriculum. Literature-based instruction. Hands-on learning. Research into practice. The ideas sound good, but how does a busy teacher find time to become an expert in children's literature covering all subjects? And what about designing those lessons that are supposed to motivate children to learn difficult content area material? In Fusing Science with Literature: Strategies and Lessons for Classroom Success, Caryn King and Peg Sudol come to the rescue. Focusing on topics often covered with 9- to 11-year-old students, the authors provide step-by-step lesson plans that incorporate literature into the science curriculum. They offer dozens of recommendations for trade books that can be used with this age group, providing detailed descriptions of each one. Also described are reading strategies that can help your students meet the challenges posed by subject area text. These are real lessons, successfully tested by real teachers and real children. Not only can they be successful in your classroom, but they can inspire you and your students to experiment with literature-based learning across your curriculum. |
