Chapter 7
It was interesting to learn in this chapter that picture books have 32 pages. I have always enjoyed picture books and this chapter really points out the different media used in creating some sensational art. I like the idea of using email to correspond with other children of the same age to promote book talk. I think this would be a very effective tool to get students to read and as the book points out writing is also involved; therefore, writing lessons can in incorporated into the reading lesson.

I agree with you Linda. Using e-mail to correspond with other kids about books is a good idea or even doing the instant chat would be good too. The book does give so many good ideas on how to incorporate books into a lesson plan.
ReplyDeleteI agree using email or a blog like we are doing is a good way for children (or adults)to share ideals, talk about books ect. I didn't know about the page numbers a picture book contains.
