Description

Focus on reading with this wealth of single-page literacy activities that explore students' understanding of what they're reading, and encourage inventive and in-depth response from all students. Each activity uses a key aspect of literacy, from talk and oral reading to drama and the visual arts to writing and research, to examine the elements of any book, in any genre. With activities suitable for individuals, partners, and groups, the book will show you how to help children reflect on and think about what they've read, and become more deeply involved with their reading and response.
